Founded in 1964, the President’s Commission on White House Fellowships is the Nation’s premier program for leadership and public service.  The White House Fellowship offers exceptional Americans first-hand experience working at the highest levels of the Federal Government on a strictly non-partisan basis.  Selected individuals spend one year in Washington, D.C., working as a full-time, paid Government employees aiding Cabinet Secretaries, senior White House staff, and other top-ranking Government officials.

The program has fostered a remarkable legacy of leadership.  Of the more than 800 alumni in the last half-century, scores have gone on to top positions in the military, in business, in education, in the media, and in philanthropy.  Alumni currently serving in the Administration include Secretary of Transportation, Elaine L. Chao and Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom, Samuel D. Brownback.  The 2021-2022 White House Fellowship program year will begin in September 2021 and conclude in September 2022.  All applicants must be a United States Citizen and have completed their undergraduate education.  Federal Government employees are not eligible, with the exception of active duty military personnel.

Selection criteria include:

• A record of remarkable early-career professional achievement.
• Evidence of leadership skills and the potential for further growth.
• A demonstrated commitment to public service.
• The skills to succeed at the highest levels of the Federal Government and the ability work effectively as part of a team.
