Folger Institute Short-Term Fellowships for 2026-2027

Applications are open through January 15th, 2026 for Folger Institute Short-Term Fellowships. Particular weight is accorded to the project’s impact, relevance, and approach. Furthermore, the Institute is committed to supporting work across fields of study in the early modern humanities that address inequities or marginalized subjects, and that point to richer and more inclusive histories. Short-term fellowships support scholars whose work would benefit from significant primary research for one, two, or three months, with a monthly stipend of $ 5,000 per onsite month and $ 4,000 per virtual month.
