The Donald D. Harrington Graduate Fellows Program was established by Sybil Harrington as a tribute to her late husband. She envisioned a program that would support gifted and ambitious young scholars at the university. These talented students would, in turn, share their knowledge and success with future generations. Fellowships, including a stipend of $45,000-$50,000 for 12 months, tuition and required fees, an allowance for student medical insurance, and $2,000 for miscellaneous expenses, are awarded annually to the most highly qualified applicants or nominees.

Harrington Doctoral Fellows are chosen from among the successful external applicants to programs leading to a doctoral degree—Ph.D., Ed.D. or DMA. The fellowship is awarded for five years. Three of those years are full fellowship years. During the other two years, the program provides support for all three semesters (fall/spring/summer) that is supplemented by the Harrington Fellowship to keep the stipend level constant. The length of the Harrington Fellowship may be adjusted for doctoral programs that are less than five years per their degree plan. Funding after the first year is contingent on satisfactory academic progress.

Harrington Master’s Fellows are chosen from among the successful external applicants to programs leading to terminal master’s degrees—for example, the MFA. The fellowship may be awarded on a one- or two-year basis. In the case of a two-year award, funding after the first year is contingent on satisfactory academic progress.
