Congratulations to the 2025-2026 APSA Diversity Fellowship Program Spring Recipients!
The APSA Diversity Fellowship Program (DFP), formerly the Minority Fellowship Program, was established in 1969 as a fellowship competition to diversify the political science profession. The DFP provides support to students applying to, or in the early stages of, a PhD program in political science. APSA has once again awarded a new cycle to provide support for students currently in their first or second year as of Spring 2025.
Please join us in congratulating the 2025-2026 class of DFP Fellows!
