Essays / The Humphrey Fellowship Program - Essays questions clarification is needed [3]

"The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship" Program - essay requirements



Hello,

I hope you are safe and sound.

I would like to apply for "The Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship" Program, and when I review the essays questions, I found them a little bet complicated. So, please, I need your clarification in three (3) of them.

Number 1: "Please describe how your work addresses the short and long-term needs of your country. Describe how the knowledge and skills you will gain through the Humphrey Fellowship will help you further address your country's needs." Is this the personal statement?

Number 2: "The Humphrey Fellowship focuses on public service and developing leaders who contribute to the greater good. Please describe how you have demonstrated a strong commitment to public service, for example through community engagement, civic involvement, or professional responsibilities."

Do "public service" include professional experience that addresses margenalized benificiaries who benifted from "capacity building" "reading", and "English language" free of charge training courses? Does it also include "voluntary work"?

Number 3: "Humphrey Fellows are required to take initiative to build a program plan by choosing academic and professional experiences that will help them achieve their professional goals. Please describe your professional goals for the next five years, provide details about the academic and professional experiences that you would choose when designing your Humphrey Fellowship, and explain how these experiences will help you achieve your goals." What do they mean by "academic and professional experiences that you would choose when designing your Humphrey Fellowship", am I going to design a program?[/b]

[b]Many thanks in advance for your clarification and I'm very sorry for bothing you with so many questions!

@Holt
Dear Holt,

Thanks a lit for your detailed & prompt response.

I just have a question, how should I know what academic requirements I can include while the university i will be sent to is unknown to me? For candidates can't choose their courses or universities in this fellowship, the committee makes the choice. However, i know the names of the host universities. Do you want to say that I've to check the host universities' courses & include the majors

I want to study in my application?

What about the enrichment activities? How shall I know what type of activities are available?

Additionally, regarding the short/long term plans & contributions of the fellowship to my country, the answer's limit is only 1200 characters, shall i write short answers? e.g: the fellowship activities will advance my skills, bla bla? Without being specific because of the characters limit.

My last question is, I believe some essays answers have similar examples, is it okay? Such as the leadership & initiative question, and also addressing short and long term needs.

I'm really so grateful for your efforts Holt ..

Regards,

Student Talk / How start to write?I have to take score 7 in ielts exam! [24]

I have applied for IELTS a year ago and unfortunateku got 5.5, I'm planning to reapply but I'm really afraid to get low mark. I guess reading our friends' writing posts here and taking the feedback and comments from the moderators/contributor members into account would help us ..

Student Talk / I'm weak in English, unable to write any composition. What to do? [31]

Hello. I think reading is the best way to help you improve your writing. Read children stories, read short articles, news, posts, and then try to copy and develop. Writing diaries is very very helpful. "Ladybird" stories helped me a lot. Wish you the best of luck ..

Scholarship / Helping other people grow - Personal Statement for GKS Scholarship 2020 (Embassy Track) [7]

Hi! I totally agree with Holt, your interest in this particular grant is not clear. Also, to be honest, I was very surprised when I read the following: "Although obtaining my master's ..." As if you are underestimating your country and the importance of pursuing further degrees!

However, your English is really good, I like it. But, you still need to reconsider the logical order. Good luck!

Student Talk / Last Year's Essays Answers for My New Chevening Application - Is it acceptable? [3]

same essay twice?



Hello,

Is it possible and acceptable for a Cheveining applicant to use the same essays he used before when applying for Chevening again?

I applied for Chevening last year and was selected for the interview but I apologized for some circumstances. So, I was wondering, is it okay to use

the same essays for essays questions?

Many thanks in advance for your kind help!

Student Talk / Last Year's Essays Answers for My New Chevening Application - Is it acceptable? [3]

Thank you so much for your explanations. But I have a clarification, I applyed for Chevening three times, the first one in 2018 my application was rejected, 2019 I was selected for the intervew and things didn't wor, and the last time in 2020 and I used the same essays of 2019 & was selected for the interview but I apologized and didn't go for the intervew. I will try my best to make recognizable changes.

Thank you.
