If you meet the requirements, you should determine if you have any likelihood of actually getting the fellowship. Once you believe that you have the possibility of actually being a recipient of the NEH Post-Doctoral Fellowship, then you should fill out an application.
An important part in the process of trying for the fellowship is filling out the application correctly. Occasionally the process can be long and tedious, but it is absolutely critical that the forms are filled out precisely and thoroughly. Use caution to insure that you will not get passed over because of some minor point.
After the required forms have been mailed, you should note when the NEH Post-Doctoral Fellowship chooses a winner and distributes the resources in order to know whether or not you will be able to count on the fellowship to help meet the expenses associated with school and its personal usefulness, since there might be constraints on what expenses are covered by the NEH Post-Doctoral Fellowship. It can be difficult to find ways to cover all of your financial needs, and obtaining the NEH Post-Doctoral Fellowship as a supplement to your own resources can be a huge help. Even if you don't obtain the NEH Post-Doctoral Fellowship, keep at it, you might find new fellowships and you may find success elsewhere.
