The Institute of Sacred Music in the US offers long-term fellowships for a cluster of qualified individuals who wish to work on a common project. The fellowship year normally lasts from August 20th to May 15th. Fellowships may also be given for either fall or spring, though applicants who are available for the entire year are strongly favored. All fellows are expected to be free of commitments that would prevent them from devoting themselves full time to the work outlined in their proposal and to live in residence within ten miles of the Yale campus.Candidates are eligible to apply as fellows if they are employed as regular full-time faculty or if they have more than six years of related experience following the doctorate.<h2>The application requires:</h2><ol><li>Personal data (including education and professional work).</li><li>Curriculum-vitae, not to exceed 10 pages in length.</li><li>A statement of not more than 1400 words describing the proposed scholarly or creative project intended for the year.
