Welcome to the Brown Fellows Program
The Brown Fellows Program was established by the James Graham Brown Foundation to build leadership capability and to invest in the intellectual capital of the Commonwealth. Brown Fellows is an individualized development program that provides a diverse group of students the opportunity to build leadership skills through academic enrichment, expanded opportunity and personal accountability.
The Brown Fellows Program is unique in that it is a single initiative that spans two campuses. In partnership with Centre College and the University of Louisville, Brown Fellows receive full tuition, room and board and will participate in an extraordinary summer program featuring international travel as a group before freshman year. Fellows also receive an enhanced academic experience consisting of individual study, field-based experiential learning and community service. Each student will have an on campus mentor, engage in enrichment opportunities and manage a customized Leadership Project. In successive years the program will focus on the individual student to provide an extraordinary summer enrichment experience focused in thematic areas of service, international research and study, and leadership.
Eligibility and selection criteria include scholastic attainment/intellectual leadership, adversity through courage and perseverance; well-rounded leadership with a passion for excellence, as well as interest in remaining in Kentucky after graduation. Learn more.
