The White House Fellowship is one of the nation’s most prestigious programs for leadership and public service.  Each year, 11-19 exceptional young men and women are selected to spend a year in Washington, D.C. to gain first-hand experience in the process of governing the nation at the highest levels of the Federal government.

Candidates need to be promising young leaders who are excelling early in their careers and are committed to leadership and public service.  Thus, this is not for students but rather for individuals already into their careers.
