JULIA AMORY APPLETON TRAVELING FELLOWSHIP
The Julia A. Appleton Traveling Fellowship in Architecture was established in 1906 from a gift given to the President and Fellows of Harvard College by Charles F. McKim of New York City. This gift was made as a permanent foundation for a traveling fellowship in architecture to be called, in memory of his wife, the Julia Amory Appleton Traveling Fellowship in Architecture.
The fellowship is granted annually to one graduating architecture student and is open to both MArch I and MArch II students. The fellowship is approximately $30,000 and is to be used for travel and study. The fellowship is awarded based on academic record at the GSD, degree and sponsorship of previous travel experience, statement of purpose for travel and a portfolio of work done at the GSD.
The award will be judged in two parts, in the following manner:
For part one of this award, students must submit an Application
with a 2-5 page travel proposal.
Application materials should be uploaded to the Architecture Department Awards iSite by the April 1st deadline. A faculty committee will review the submitted travel proposals and choose a group of finalists to submit for the second round of judging.
For part two of this award the finalists will be asked to submit a portfolio. Portfolios should be uploaded to the Architecture Department Awards iSite by the May 20th deadline. For MArch I students, the portfolio should contain a record of the first six semesters of design work completed at the GSD. For MArch AP students, your portfolio would be expected to include four semesters of design work. For March II students, your portfolio should include design work completed during all three semesters at the GSD.
