View In Browser

 
 

Dear Faculty and Staff Colleagues,

On behalf of the Presidential Administrative Fellowship (PAF) program, we would like to ask for your help in getting the word out about this wonderful opportunity for GW seniors.

We are now looking for nominees for the PAF program and could use your support in two ways:

  1. If you know of any qualified seniors (see below for details), please nominate them using this form. We will then contact them with an invitation to apply for this prestigious program.
  2. Spread the word to your students about the PAF program and the upcoming information sessions listed below.

About the Presidential Administrative Fellowship program:

The PAF program is a two-year commitment, which benefits both the student and the university. The PAF program is designed to offer graduating GW seniors administrative experience within various offices at the university while also giving them the opportunity to pursue a master's degree in their chosen field. The PAF program combines classroom education, professional experiences, service opportunities, and ambassadorial interaction with faculty, staff, and alumni to provide an excellent learning experience in leadership and administration as a foundation for nearly any professional career path.

PAFs are provided with graduate tuition and fees (maximum 42 credit-hour graduate program) plus a graduate salary and stipend.  The PAFs also complete a competency-based professional development curriculum designed to enhance their leadership and administration skills that can be applied during their time at GW and post-graduation.

Applicant criteria:

Applicants must meet certain criteria in order to be eligible. They must be undergraduate seniors graduating from GW during the 2013-14 academic year, have completed at least 60 credits at GW, have a minimum 3.25 cumulative GPA at the time of application, and be admitted into a GW master's degree program for the fall 2014 semester before accepting the PAF opportunity (J.D., LL.M., and M.D. students are not eligible for the PAF program).

Information sessions:

Please encourage your students to attend one of the following PAF program information sessions, where they can learn more about the PAF program and speak to current PAFs about this unique opportunity.

  • Monday, September 16, 5:00 to 6:00 pm, Marvin Center 404
  • Thursday, September 26, 5:00 to 6:00 pm, MSSC 104
