The Office of Pre-Professional Advising and Major Fellowships helps students explore post-graduate opportunities and develop strong applications for fellowships, scholarships, or professional studies in law, medicine, and other fields. We help students:
- Uncover possibilities and develop plans for post-graduate study
- Identify fellowships, scholarships, and professional schools best suited to their goals
- Prepare competitive proposals and applications, including personal statements and research interests
The office also coordinates several scholarship opportunities for Lawrence students to pursue research, internships, or other activities.
