2. Each campus must agree to support a minimum cohort of seven student fellows.
3. Each campus must identify a local M3C fellowship coordinator (Please see Appendix A for more details).
4. Each campus must identify a new or existing program into which the M3C Fellows Program could naturally be integrated.
5. Each campus must designate an individual to provide the fellows with regular oversight and guidance (In many cases, the person managing an existing program may also serve as the local M3C fellowship coordinator).

M3C Campus Application Guidelines

                     A complete application consists of  3 (and only these) elements:

• A title page
• A narrative that responds to the questions outlined in the campus application
• A letter of endorsement from the president of the applicant institution

            Completed applications must be sent to the appropriate Campus Compact state network office as well as the M3C Regional       Coordinating office.

      Method of submission
      While Wisconsin Campus Compact prefers electronic submission, the method of submission will not impact selection decisions.

• Electronic --> Preferred (via email to regional coordinating office at Wisconsin Campus Compact)
  Electronically scan pages requiring a signature (title page and endorsement) and submit with the narrative            

• Postal delivery
  Submit one original copy to the Regional Office, and one original copy to your State Office.           

 

Selection Criteria 

                  Completed applications from eligible institutions will be evaluated on many criteria including:

• How the program will provide a positive experience for the students
• How the program will achieve the stated goals of the M3C Fellows Program
• How the local selection and recruitment of fellows will reach the target population
• How adequate guidance and support will be provided for the fellows, including financial support above and beyond the educational award provided by the M3C Fellows Program
• The plan of how to involve students in planning and implementing meaningful civic engagement activities
• The proposed evaluation methods of the project
• How much support and collaboration will be provided from within the institution

 

Campuses are selected to participate in the M3C Fellows Program based on a competitive application process.  Applications are considered on an ongoing basis in the order that they are received until all 450 fellowships are filled.
