Apply to be a White House Fellow

White House Fellows gain first-hand experience in the process of governing the Nation and a sense of personal involvement in the leadership of society.

Founded in 1964 by Lyndon B. Johnson, the White House Fellows program is one of America’s most prestigious programs for leadership and public service. White House Fellowships offer exceptional emerging leaders first-hand experience working at the highest levels of the Federal government.

Selected individuals typically spend a year working as a full-time, paid Fellow to senior White House Staff, Cabinet Secretaries, and other top-ranking government officials. Fellows also participate in an education program consisting of roundtable discussions with leaders from the private and public sectors, and potential trips to study U.S. policy in action both domestically and internationally. Fellowships are awarded on a strictly non-partisan basis.

Applications for this Fellowship close on January 5, 2024 at 3 p.m. ET. For more details and to apply, visit the White House Fellows Program website.
