The Rome Prize awards about thirty artists and scholars annually for innovative, cross-disciplinary work in arts and humanities. Winners receive stipends ($16,000 half-term, $30,000 full-term), private living and workspaces, and participate in community projects. Fellowships run from September to June, with eligibility including US citizens and certain foreign nationals, and specific criteria for graduate students and previous winners.
Applicants must be US citizens or foreign nationals with 3 years US residency for certain fellowships. Graduate students must be ABD for predoctoral fellowships. Previous winners and undergraduates are ineligible. Winners cannot hold full-time jobs during the fellowship.
