If you are applying to start at AUC in September 2026, you should apply for a TFA after you have submitted your application for admission to AUC. Even if you are still waiting to hear a decision on your admission from the AUC Admissions Committee, you need to apply for a TFA before the deadline of 1 April 2026. The application form for Talent Fellowships starting in September 2026 is scheduled to be available on this section of the website starting in February 2026.
You will need:
The ASF Selection Committee will only see this letter of motivation and they will not see your application for admission to AUC. Make sure you include everything you want to say to them in this letter. This is the most important part of your Talent Fellowship application and you must write it yourself. The ASF Selection Committee will be looking for information on:
The letter of motivation should be a maximum of 2 sides in A4 format and written in English. Please make sure it has your full name at the top, and it needs to be in a digital format (e.g. PDF) that is ready to upload with a maximum file size of 2 MB.
This information will be kept strictly confidential. Only the fact that you meet this criterion will be revealed to the Selection Committee members, and only to them. They will not see the document(s) you send, and these will only be used internally for verification purposes.
