By applying for any of these fellowships, you give permission for your resume and letters of recommendation from your application for admission to be shared with the fellowship committee(s). No other materials from your application for admission--such as the essays you submitted as part of your application for admission--will be available to the fellowship committee.
(from the financial aid application website)

Sarah Jane Noujeim
11:26:59 AM
What type of interview is the fellowship interview i.e. what type of questions are asked? E.g. about our leadership goals, CV questions or behavioral questions? Similar to question above, is there another alternative to Skype because Skype is technically illegal in the country I am in.
Henriette Fleischmann
11:28:00 AM
Just to make sure I understood correctly - all fellowships listed in the financial aid application can be applied to but an applicant will only be considered for one interview?
Amir Salehzadeh
11:28:11 AM
If you apply to none of the program fellowship but still complete the financial aid form + FAFSA, I wanted to confirm that you're still eligible for other fellowships/aid (that don't require extra essays?) I will likely apply to 1-2 of these but wanted to just confirm that you're better off submitting the form even if you don't apply to any of the program fellowships.
Tuganay Borina
11:30:11 AM

Would all shortlisted applicants receive an interview invite and if someone has not received an interview call in Feb, would it be safe to assume: that student has not been shortlisted for any of the fellowships?
Joy Namunoga
11:32:19 AM
I personally fit within both the Dubin and Geitsman fellowship, how can CPL make a decisions to choose one fellowship for you.
Sasha Rauch-Kelly
11:32:23 AM
Is the timeline for finalist selection and interview the same for joint-degree program fellowships given that admission to both programs is required for fellowship eligibility HBS Round II decisions will not be released until late March?
Mayra Delgado Dador
11:32:58 AM
If you are a defer student, will the Committee still have access to your application documents?
Evan Ramsey

Shelane Etchison

Is the Black Family Fellowship awarded for your first year only? Or the full duration of your degree program?
Camila Thorndike
11:36:25 AM
To confirm, all interviews happen at the end of February? I ask because I was under the impression that the Bacon Fellowship applicants would be notified in March, and I will be largely out of online communication in February (but would of course strive to make accommodations if we will be notified by Feb. 22). Thank you!
Danielle Beavers
11:36:35 AM
If you receive an interview invite in late February does that mean you are accepted for the HKS program you applied to?
Syed Faraz
