Known as the Rockefeller awards, these are one year awards intended to be trial year fellowships during which time the Fellow seeks to determine whether the ministry is personally a viable vocation in these times. About 55 fellowships are awarded annually to those not now definitely planning to attend graduate theological school, but who would be willing, if awarded a fellowship, to attend such a school for one year in order to consider seriously the possibility of the ordained Protestant ministries. Candidacy is open to men and women, no older than thirty, citizens of the United States or Canada, and at least a graduating senior or the recipient of a Bachelor's Degree. Direct applications are not accepted. Each candi-date must be nominated by a minister, faculty member, or former Fellow. The letter of nomination, giving only the name and address of the nominee must be received in Princeton no later than November 20, 1974. Application forms will then be sent to the nominee. The awards are announced in early March. Fellows may apply to any Protestant seminary which is fully accredited by the American Associa-tion of Theological Schools. There is no obligation to continue at seminary beyond the first year. For further information of the Rockefeller award, contact iDr. Lester Meyer in the Religion Department.
