This a free resource for you to understand and review general statistics about these national fellowships. My team and I have compiled important statistics that can help you develop a strategy that can help you increase your chances of becoming more competitive.

When you are ready to begin your application, check out the comprehensive National Fellowship Application Guide that has helped dozens of fellowship winners in the last year win the Rhodes Scholarship, Marshall, Fulbright, Luce, Schwarzman, Gates Cambridge, and more.

Winning a Rhodes Scholarship, Schwarzman, Mitchell, Marshall, Gates Cambridge, Luce, Fulbright, among others, can be a life-changing experience for students, recent graduates, and young professionals. You become a member of a cohort of other impressive, interesting, and intellectual people, and your network will expand dramatically. The scholarship/fellowship year itself is an unforgettable experience that allows you to explore new cultures, countries, and people. Winning national fellowships can also increase your chance to obtain a blue chip job and/or gain admittance to elite graduate school programs after your scholarship year. A fellowship year may be the single most important and impactful experience you could have in your life, so far.

I'm YJ (Yongjun) Heo, and I was awarded three national fellowships (Fulbright, Luce Scholars Program, and George Mitchell Scholarship). I have advised dozens of national fellowship winners over the last decade, including my younger brother, who was a Schwarzman Scholar. I have directly helped students and recent graduates win the Rhodes, Mitchell, Marshall, Fulbright, Schwarzman, Gates Cambridge, Luce, Rangel, Watson, and others. As a product designer, I created and maintain the application system for a well-known national fellowship. Hundreds of college students and recent graduates have asked me for resources to help them apply, and I'm consolidating and sharing as much as I can here and on nationalfellowship.com and nationalfellowships.com. By coincidence, life circumstances, and direct experiences, I believe I know more about these programs than almost anyone else, and I want you to learn everything that I have learned here.

*disclaimer: I'm a designer-entrepreneur who also runs MWDL, a web design and product development company (https://midwestdesignlab.com). MWDL built and manages the George Mitchell Scholarship application system. I do not assess, select, or weigh in on any application. This documentation or any advice that I offer does not guarantee your winning a national fellowship. However, I believe that the mere act of going through the process will help you develop a plan for the next steps in your life, which can ultimately be helpful.
