The Dolores Zohrab Liebmann Fund supports graduate students of outstanding ability who demonstrate financial need. Fellows may pursue any recognized field of study in the humanities, social sciences, or natural sciences, including law, medicine, engineering, architecture, and other formal professional training. The selection committee has a strong preference for supporting scholarly endeavors.

This is a limited submission. Georgia Tech may submit no more than three candidates. Students do not apply directly to the fund and should not contact JPMorgan or members of the selection committee. Applications are submitted through Georgia Tech, which selects the candidates it will put forward.

What the fellowship provides

• Actual tuition cost, exclusive of fees.
• An $18,000 annual stipend toward room, board, and ordinary living expenses, including any income taxes on the stipend.
• Renewable for up to three years total.

Recipients are known as Dolores Zohrab Liebmann Fellows and agree to have their names published as such.

Eligibility

• Must be a citizen of the United States.
• Must be currently enrolled in and pursuing a graduate degree. Undergraduate students are not eligible.
• Must have received a baccalaureate degree at the time of application, with an outstanding undergraduate record.
• Must demonstrate a need for financial assistance.

Candidates may be of any national descent or background.

What to submit

• Submit your complete application and supporting documents to Georgia Tech by the internal deadline. 
• Transcripts and recommendation letters must be sent to Georgia Tech, not to the fund, so that they can be assembled into your packet. 
• See page 5 of the application for the complete documentation requirements.

• Redact any Social Security numbers before submitting. 

  Incomplete applications will not be considered.
