Schools, departments, and centers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign that wish to host a scholar at risk are encouraged to complete and submit the Expression of Interest Form for hosting a scholar at risk in 2024-2025 by January 31, 2024. Fellowships are normally awarded for the following academic year, but the Illinois Scholars at Risk Program Committee does consider emergency applications on a case-by-case basis whenever possible. Fellowships will not be deferred or reserved for scholars who decline the fellowship, elect not to come, or are unable to come.

If you have any questions about the deadline, please contact isarillinois@illinois.edu.
