Potential Fellows must be recommended by a sponsor—a current Fellow of The College— who nominates the candidate and submits the following documentation:

• Letter of recommendation written by the sponsor
• Letters of recommendation from three other Members of The College, at least one of whom is a Fellow  (Please contact The College if you need a Membership Directory to help you identify potential sponsors)
• Completed Fellowship Sponsorship Form (to be filled out by main sponsor)
• Completed Fellowship Application (to be filled out by candidate)

All documentation should be collected by the main sponsor.  The main sponsor should then forward the completed package to The College.

The deadlines for submitting Fellowship materials each year are June 1 and November 1.  Applications submitted by June 1 will be considered by the Board of Regents in October and elevated Fellows will be notified in November.  Applications submitted by November 1 will be considered by the Board of Regents in February of the following year and elevated Fellows will be notified in March.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Membership Coordinator, Angel Waszak, at or 312.662.1020.
