Q. Do I need to be accepted to the university at my preferred Rotary Peace Center before fellows are selected?
A. No. Do not apply to any Rotary Peace Center university partner until Rotary notifies you that you’ve been selected. Once you’ve been selected, a Rotary Peace Centers specialist will contact you and provide information for the next step.
Q. If I’m selected as a fellow, how much time will I have to apply to my assigned university?
A. You should apply as soon as you are notified that you’ve been selected. Application deadlines differ from university to university, so you should contact the admissions office of your assigned university for application procedures and deadlines.
Q. What qualifies as relevant work experience?
A. Relevant experience varies depending on your area of expertise and focus. It could be directly related to peacebuilding or conflict resolution. It can also be work in other areas such as resource and environmental issues, education and literacy, women’s rights, journalism, public health, and disease prevention among others. International experience, working with a nonprofit or multilateral institution, working in a developing country, working with youth, or volunteer work are also considered relevant experience. Examples of work experience that is not relevant include retail sales, restaurant work, and administrative work for a business not related to peace, development, or community building.
