The Spencer Foundation is currently accepting applications for its postdoctoral fellowship program. Each year, the program selects 25 fellows who receive $70,000 for one academic year. Fellows also participate in three professional development retreats and are matched with a mentor who provides them with guidance throughout the academic year. This opportunity is open to undocumented students. Under their Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section, the fellowship program states that, “Non-U.S. and non-residential citizens are eligible to apply for the postdoctoral fellowship.”
Here are the eligibility requirements:
- “Have received their PhD, EdD, or equivalent research degree between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2023.
- Not hold tenure status at the time of the application deadline.
- Have a demonstrated record of research experience in education and the project must be in education research.
- Submit an individual application as we will not accept group applications.”
The deadline to apply is November 13, 2025 at 5pm ET
