Special Note to all applicants:

Don't rely on just grade point averages. The percentage of nominees with a GPA of 4.0 is fairly high, but even a 4.0 is no guarantee of being awarded the fellowship. Achievements, other than grades, are frequently the deciding factors. Other scholarly activities such as publications, research efforts, art works, school or public service activities, or any special activities, are an important consideration in the selection.
