Delaying the Real World
The Delaying the Real World fellowship is designed to sponsor an adventurous project that is independent of academic and religious institutions. Tell us what YOU would do if you could postpone the 9-5 grind, and we just might make your dreams for adventure come true. Apply for the Delaying the Real World Fellowship and you’re in the running for a $5,000 grant for your very own bold, exhilarating, and fulfilling adventure. For suggested adventures and inspiration, check out Delaying the Real World by Colleen Kinder.
Applicants must be in the greatest decade of life, (THE TWENTIES! — Ages 21 through 29), and a U.S. citizen. There is no educational requirement to apply.
There is no time length requirement on your adventure, though the fellowship committee will take into account how well your proposed idea maximizes the $5,000 grant. The winner should plan to begin the fellowship within four (4) months of the award date, which will be no later than May 31, 2008, and willing to report any fellowship-related escapades back to the fellowship committee, including occasional photos.
