“It was clear to me that the Jefferson Fellow is a special type of student; the student who rises to challenges, expects the most out of his/her peers, and seeks out opportunities within and without the academic arena. I was honored the the selection committee saw this kind of scholar in me, and I chose to be a Jefferson Fellow in order to rise to that challenge and meet the high expectations of those around me, faculty and students alike.”

“Being a Jefferson Fellow gives you an exclusive group of brilliant and passionate academics. This cluster and legacy at U.Va. is unique compared to the little fish/big pond feel of other schools. This group also gives you exceptional and unprecedented access to faculty and alumni in your field, because they will prioritize talking with and investing in you prior to others in your program. This is not an experience matched at other schools.”
