“I was just accepted to Johns Hopkins' PhD program with one of their most prestigious fellowships. WOAH! The Fully Funded course gave me a process with which to approach the 8 PhD and fellowship applications I completed last fall. The tools and strategies that you provided made me a much more competitive applicant, especially the writing structure and interview prep. The MATCH ME Formula was practical and immediately useful. I count on your continued guidance as I make my decision. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!”
Carmen G., fully funded PhD candidate in Sociology (with multiple offers!)
"lI still cannot believe what I have achieved through this course - a full funding award worth more than $75,000 and the opportunity to attend my dream master's program. Your formula helped me build and polish my application story. This gave me the edge I needed to stand out among so many other outstanding candidates.”
Oumama K., Thomas R. Pickering Fellowship Winner &
graduate student at Johns Hopkins SAIS
"The 5-part personal statement framework you teach in the Fully Funded course was pivotal for me. I'm pleased to report I was just accepted to Harvard!"
Shannon I., graduate student at Harvard University
& first generation college student
"I knew I needed to find fully funded PhD programs, but I did not know where to start or anything about the process. I could have tried to Google everything or hope that I could get enough quality advice from friends and associates, but I didn’t have the time with my master’s studies, and I needed someone in-the-know to give me the right kind of advice. The MATCH ME Formula showed me how to make each application unique so it would not be seen as just another “cookie-cutter” submission. Getting help and advice through the course about each component and your big-picture strategies undoubtedly helped me to get to where I am today: multiple full funding offers."
Ricky U., fully funded PhD in Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M
After completing the Fully Funded course,
I felt I had mastered graduate school!
When I found your Fully Funded program I felt so relaxed, because now I had a plan, and I knew I could do this!
Applying to fellowships and graduate schools can be confusing, confidence-draining, time-intensive and isolating… but it doesn’t have to be!
Maybe you've your eye on some of the nationally competitive fellowship awards (Fulbright, Pickering, White House Fellows, Rotary) that could fully fund graduate school or offer an unparalleled professional development opportunity, but are intimidated by the competition.
Perhaps you're scouring the internet for graduate school funding awards and coming up short. You’ve vaguely heard of “fully funded graduate programs” (perhaps this page is the first time) and they sound too good to be true.
You wish someone would show you how to find the right fellowship and funding awards for your goals, or fully funded master's or doctoral degrees offering full tuition coverage and annual stipend for the duration of your studies (yes, they exist!)
And you’d like to learn a *proven formula* for creating a winning application so you don’t lose confidence and focus as you compile and edit your essays and request recommendation letters.
Most of all, you’d like to receive support and mentorship from someone who knows the secrets to gaining entrance to highly competitive programs and awards, so you don’t have to figure this out on your own.
Ultimately, when you hit “Submit”, you want to feel fully confident that you prepared your *strongest application possible*.

"I would absolutely recommend this course to graduate school applicants! If you are applying for the first time and you aren't familiar with how it all works, it can be overwhelming. It really helps to have an organized space in the Fully Funded workbooks to take notes on graduate programs and develop your strategy on how to approach them. Seeking a degree in the UK as an international student has been tricky and stressful, but with the support of the course and Vicki's Office Hours, I have achieved acceptance to several programs!"
Brandi S, acceptance to PhD at the University of York (and several other UK graduate programs!), Acton-Goodman Scholarship Finalist
“The module on "Interview Secrets" was incredible! It really helped me outline my interview plan, reach out to past fellows (which I was easily able to do), and formulate interview questions both for myself and the interview team. I walked away from that interview so excited, proud, and grateful for the experience."

The Guarantees
Your Commitment
I cannot guarantee that you will win a fellowship or full funding award through this program. Just as no college advisor can guarantee you’ll gain acceptance to Harvard and no athletic coach can guarantee you’ll get drafted for a pro team, the same principle applies here: your acceptance to a competitive program is dependent on the level of effort and focus you dedicate to your application.
My Promise
What I can guarantee is that if you follow the guidance provided in the Fully Funded program and actively participate in Office Hours, you’ll create your strongest application possible and learn writing, negotiation, and social psychology techniques that will significantly improve your chances of success for any competitive opportunity throughout your career. I will help you find your edge.
If you are not 100% confident that you can create a winning application for an award with a less than 5% acceptance rate, you will be after completing this program.

“Before taking the Fully Funded course, I had applied to doctoral programs and was rejected across-the-board. I joined Fully Funded because I knew I had to do something different. The course taught me how to change my application story from one of tragedy to inspiration. At my next try, I was accepted to ALL for programs, with full funding offers!"
L. Tomay Douglas, fully funded PhD candidate in Sociology at UC San Diego
“The Fully Funded course is already meeting my expectations of demystifying the application process. The structure and assignments in the modules are providing me with actionable steps to take. I love the examples used in the videos! All of this is truly beneficial, as it has helped reduce the stress and anxiety I had at the beginning of this process!
Carolyn B., new Fully Funded course participant
“As a mid-career professional, one of the best things I received from the Fully Funded course was step-by-step guidance on how to narrow my goals and find fellowships and funding opportunities that will help me meet those goals. I've learned how to best position myself and my story for each individual program I've applied to. This clarified the whole process for me and really boosted my confidence that I was indeed someone they’d want to work with - and that was HUGE for me. I've now been accepted into a prestigious women’s leadership program AND a fellowship to work with leaders in local government, and I have a finalist interview for a third fellowship!"
Maryruth P., Coro Women in Leadership Fellowship AND Urban Leaders Fellowship Winner
You Can Do the Course From Home, From Anywhere
in the World, and on Your Schedule
You can complete the course lessons from the comfort of your couch or kitchen table, as long as you have an Internet connection!
The entire program is completely digital so you can access it from anywhere through our private course portal. And you'll never miss a beat: you can go at your own pace and do the lessons on your schedule.
How Long Does It Take to Complete the Fully Funded Course?
The best answer is, it depends on you and your situation. Most students can watch the 10 modules of video trainings and complete the exercises in 10 weeks or less (1 module per week).
However, translating your exercises into essays and preparing one or more applications for fellowships and graduate schools can take much longer.
If you have a deadline that is less than 2 months away, I suggest starting right away! If you have a deadline that is more than 2 months away, I also suggest starting right away!
The more time you have to edit and improve your applications, the better. I recommend you set aside at least 2 - 5 hours per week to go through the video modules, complete your exercises and prepare your applications.
Also be sure to book the recurring Office Hours events on your calendars and participate whenever you can!
“The Fully Funded personal statement writing exercises and interactive workbooks were beyond helpful, especially for a visual learned like myself. The course feels guided and personalized."
Katherin S., fully funded Master's candidate at Columbia University
"Prior to this program, I've always written my essays and submitted my applications at the last minute because for the life of me and my lack of street smarts, I just could not figure out how to break down every aspect of the application process and have been a serial procrastinator for the past decade. I honestly never thought it'd be possible for me to compile an application, and write (and edit!) essays across several months, but now I know I can! The lessons you taught us will carry us through life. Thank you for pushing us! It was only because of the support from you and others that I was able to submit my strongest application to date."
Sunny H., Fulbright Award Winner
There Has Never Been a Better Time to Start Fully Funded
Why not start today instead of putting off your dream of completing your master’s or doctoral degree?
Starting now will allow you to:
Have as much time as possible to research and find fully funded programs that will help you achieve your career goals
Have time to contact and network with faculty and students during your application process
Have adequate time to prepare your strongest applications possible
Get a step ahead of other applicants who have not yet started their applications.
My personal motto is: The prepared will succeed.
Your level of preparation and effort directly correlates with your level of success.
“It has been an amazing journey in the course. It was like a lightbulb came on. I decided to apply for an award that I previously dismissed as out of my league. The deadline was in just 2 days. I nailed my personal statement by Thursday morning and received positive feedback from my colleagues. Even though the application was rushed, this was my best application EVER. My confidence is soaring! I now have a list of 10 more awards that I plan to apply to."
Wumi Oyeleke, Fully Funded student from Nigeria
How do I know if I am a good fit for this program?
You are NOT ready to enroll in Fully Funded if:
You are looking for an "easy" solution to achieve a fellowship or full funding for graduate school. (Be aware, these applications take time and effort!)
You are unwilling to be coached and apply a proven formula to express your personal story and academic potential to selection committees.
You're not willing to dedicate a few hours per week into finding the right fully funded programs for your goals and preparing your applications to avoid taking out tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars ($$$,$$$!) in student debt.
You are READY to enroll in Fully Funded if:
You are willing to re-locate for graduate school. (Note: unless you are in a major metropolitan city, you may find it difficult to find fully funded graduate programs commuting distance from your home.)
"I have been an educator and mentor for 25+ years and I found Vicki's workshops to be the best career and application trainings I have ever seen. I wish I had been giving information to my students over the years in the way that Vicki does."
Kathy Cox, Assistant Dean & Fellowship Advisor,
East Carolina University
What happens when you enroll?
Step 1: Choose a payment plan or pay-in-full for greater cost savings!
Step 2: You’ll receive a confirmation email and welcome email with the next dates of my next Office Hours.
Step 3: You’ll get immediate access to the course and can get started today.
“I was accepted to all three graduate programs I applied to! ASU is offering me a $35,000 merit scholarship and I'm a finalist for an additional scholarship that would cover my full tuition! The advice and strategies you teach were valuable in developing a competitive application. I want to thank you for the role you played in my successful applications."
Jennifer M., $35,000 Scholarship Winner + Full Tuition Award Finalist,
ASU Thunderbird School of Global Management
You Can Do This Regardless of Your Test Scores,
Age or Confidence Level
"My test scores are terrible."
Believe it or not, for most programs, the GRE and other required test scores are not the most important part of the application package (and some schools are no longer requiring them!) You may find great programs requiring minimum test scores and choose to work on improving your scores. Or you might choose programs that are a better fit for where you are now. You can attend Office Hours and talk through this decision with me!
"I worry I’m too old (or too young/too experienced/not experienced enough, etc.) to go to graduate school."
You do not need to be at a certain age or certain professional level to gain acceptance to a high-quality graduate program, but you do need to find programs that are a good fit for your background and for your goals. This program will help you with this very step!
"I feel pretty confident I can get accepted, but I am worried there will be no funding to go to my dream school."
Even if your dream school does not offer full funding, this program will help you identify other top programs that are fully funded that you can apply to as alternatives. Acceptance to fully funded programs can often help you negotiate funding at schools that do not typically offer it.
You can also use the Fully Funded program to apply to some of the nationally competitive full funding awards offered by foundations and government agencies (like the Pickering, Soros and Payne Fellowships), which fund a graduate program of your choice. The Fully Funded program will unlock a world of possibilities!
“I just received this exciting email for a finalist interview and I’ve got tears of joy. I used your tips, listened to your videos over and over again, developed and reviewed my workbook, met a current fellow like you advised, and got more insights before submitting my application. Viola! This is my first invitation to interview after many unsuccessful attempts. I just can't thank you enough.”
Gladys O., Finalist for the Atlantic Fellows Program & Fully Funded PhD Position
Frequently Asked Questions
Fully funded graduate programs are master's and doctoral programs that provide a full funding package to admitted students. The package includes a full tuition scholarship and an annual stipend (typically $15K - $45K) for the duration of your enrollment. (In other words, the university is paying YOU to attend!) Fully funded graduate programs are almost always for full-time, on-campus students. The funding often comes in the form of an Assistantship, which is a part-time job with the university that provides a salary (called a stipend) and a benefit of free tuition. Funding packages may also include health insurance, housing, childcare subsidies and other benefits. There are fully funded graduate programs in the U.S. and abroad.
Yes, and 1:1 advising is only available to Fully Funded participants! 1:1 advising and application review sessions are an additional cost. Details on how you can book 1:1 sessions will be provided after you enroll in the course.
I offer twice monthly, virtual "Office Hours" in Zoom exclusively for Fully Funded participants where you can ask questions and receive support as you prepare your applications. You'll receive notice about the times and dates of these group sessions when you enroll.
Absolutely! The guidance provided in the course is universal to any type of fellowship application that requires components like a personal statement, research or project proposal, a resume or CV, and short answer responses, and requires an interview. The guidance is NOT discipline-specific, but you will learn how to receive feedback on your applications from mentors in your specific disciplines.
The online course is fully recorded and immediately accessible when you enroll. The time it takes for you to complete the course depends on you and your situation. Most students can watch the 10 modules of video trainings and complete the exercises in 10 weeks or less (1 module per week).
However, translating your exercises into essays and preparing one or more applications for fellowships and graduate schools can take much longer.
If you have a deadline that is less than 2 months away, I suggest starting right away! If you have a deadline that is more than 2 months away, I also suggest starting right away!
The more time you have to edit and improve your applications, the better. I recommend you set aside at least 2 - 5 hours per week to go through the video modules, complete your exercises and prepare your applications.
Also be sure to book the recurring Office Hours events on your calendars and participate whenever you can!
Individual success in my course is highly correlated with the amount of work and effort individuals put into their applications using the strategies I teach. Of the Fully Funded students who applied to graduate schools and fellowships in 2019, in aggregate there has been more than 40 PhD/MA acceptances, most with full funding awards and Assistantships, 3 Fulbright fellowships, a Thomas R. Pickering Fellowship, and several other awards earned, as well as many Finalist distinctions! Every single person who has taken the program seriously by fully completing the course, participating in Office Hours regularly, and applying my strategies has achieved success in getting to the finalist round or acceptance to one or several competitive graduate programs. This is because the MATCH ME Formula works! You can find many testimonials from people of all ages, citizenships, disciplines and career levels who have gained entrance into a wide range of PhD and master's programs at this page.
Yes! After enrolling, you have lifetime access to this course and my twice-monthly Office Hours events.
This course advises candidates who are applying to master's and doctoral programs in the U.S. and abroad that are delivered in English which require advanced fluency in English. There are no prerequisites to participate in Fully Funded, but note that master’s and doctoral programs require an undergraduate or Bachelor's degree to enroll, and for some doctoral programs, a master’s may be required. Depending on the universities you apply to, you may also need to take an entrance exam, like the Graduate Record Exam (GRE). If you a foreign student coming to the U.S., you will need to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) or a similar English test. (Please note that the Fully Funded course does not provide guidance on these tests.)
Nope! You just need a computer or smartphone to be able to access the online course and Office Hours held in Zoom.
Enrollment in the Fully Funded program is non-refundable. However, if you determine that despite your best efforts, you cannot find at least 3 fully funded graduate programs or funding awards that are a good fit for your background and goals, please email us so we can provide assistance.
I’m afraid we do not offer scholarships to participate in Fully Funded. The revenue from this program helps support our social enterprise, ProFellow.com, which offers many free resources to fellowship seekers globally, including our free fellowships database and thousands of free articles on application tips.
However, some resourceful participants in Fully Funded have been able to use professional development grants offered by their university or employer to cover the cost of participating in the course! We would encourage you to ask your university career office or your employer about this possibility.
Also, we offer a monthly payment plan that may be a good option for you to make smaller monthly payments rather than pay-in-full.
I cannot guarantee that you will win a fellowship or full funding award through this program. Just as no college advisor can guarantee you’ll gain acceptance to Harvard and no athletic coach can guarantee you’ll get drafted for a pro team, the same principle applies here: your acceptance to a competitive program is dependent on the level of effort and focus YOU dedicate to your application.
What I can guarantee is that if you follow the guidance provided in the Fully Funded program and actively participate in Office Hours, you’ll create your strongest application possible and learn writing, negotiation, and social psychology techniques that will significantly improve your chances of success for any competitive opportunity throughout your career. I will help you find your edge.
If you are not 100% confident that you can create a winning application for an award with a less than 5% acceptance rate, you will be after completing this program.
Yes, if you are fluent in English and applying to English-based fellowships and graduate schools. We have students who have successfully applied to fellowships and graduate schools in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Nigeria and India, among others. The guidance provided in the course is universal to fellowships and programs that require a personal statement, research or project proposal, recommendation letters and a resume or CV.
No. But the good news is, many universities in the United States that once required the GRE no longer require it, and you can seek out these programs if you choose. Also, in the 2020-21 application year, we have also seen universities waive their GRE requirements due to the pandemic.
If you are still seeking support to undertake the GRE or other entrance exams, we've heard good things from our students about the test prep materials offered by Magoosh.
“Before taking the course, I thought I wasn't a unique or qualified enough candidate to be applying for any of the opportunities I had my heart set on. I took the leap with this course because I have always felt like I didn't know how to showcase my best self. This course taught me how to research opportunities, find the "insider information" that was right in front of me, and determine the best way to tell my story for each award. These are REAL strategies and tools that will elevate your application and make you stand out from the rest of the applicant pool. I am now a semifinalist for three highly competitive awards, including a Fulbright award! This course gave me the confidence to know I will never give up again."

Fulbright Oman Semi-Finalist and NYC Urban Fellows Finalist
