Cornell University: Over 50 students receive NSF graduate fellowships

Fifty-five Cornell graduate students have been selected as 2022 National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program (NSF GRFP) fellows. These new fellows join Cornell’s community of over 200 current fellows.

The NSF offers approximately 2,000 fellowships per year to research-based master’s and doctoral students pursuing study in NSF-supported science, technology, engineering and math disciplines at accredited U.S. institutions. For the 2022 competition, the NSF received over 12,000 applications.

“We are incredibly proud of and excited about the number of successful Cornell NSF GRFP applicants,” said Holly Boulia, director of fellowships in the Graduate School. “In my time at Cornell, this is the largest class of new fellows I’ve seen in one year.”
