Congratulations on receiving a fellowship or traineeship for your study at the University of Illinois!
Your fellowship may be awarded by your graduate program, the Graduate College, another unit at the university, or an external organization. Regardless, the Graduate College is here to help you fully understand the benefits and obligations associated with your award. All fellowships on campus are processed by the Graduate College’s Business & Fellowship Processing Office.
Look for your Notice of Appointment
One of the most important steps to take is sign and return your Notice of Appointment along with any requested documents. It is important to complete and return any requested documents in order for your stipend payments to be disbursed on time. Most often, the documents required are the award letter sent by the funder, the document showing the terms and conditions of the award, and student identification (social security number, passport or driver’s license number, etc.)
