Fellows Program Costs
Fellows Program Placement Options and Costs for the Class of
2012–13
In addition to covering the salary and benefits of the Fellow
throughout the Fellowship year, the nominating (Home) institution is
responsible for costs associated with the application/interview process
and the placement selection process.
Fees associated with participation in the ACE Fellows Program
consist of two parts:
$17,000 Program Fee paid to the American Council on
Education. This covers fixed costs including curriculum, distance
learning support, lodging and food at three week-long Retreat (lodging,
food), and instructional support materials.
$8,000 Minimum Professional Development Budget,
provided to the Fellow. This supports travel to and participation in
learning activities during the Fellowship, such as travel to/from
Retreats, national conferences, and visits to US and international
college and university campuses.
Depending upon the placement option selected by the Fellow and
his/her Nominator, these fees are paid in combination by the Home and
Host institutions. While the application asks for a preliminary
indication of placement option, the final decision is typically made by
Fellow and Nominator after Fellowship selection.
An academic-year placement at another institution
- 9–11 months, typically mid-August through mid-June, spent in
learning through a placement at another institution. The
Nominator/Sponsor is responsible for overall guidance of the learning
experience with a Mentor at the host institution guiding learning during
the placement period.)
- If this option is selected, the host institution pays all fees
($17,000 Program Fee to the American Council on Education and a $8,000
minimum professional development budget for the Fellow).
A one-semester placement at another institution
- A minimum of 12 weeks spent in learning through the guidance of a
Mentor during placement at another institution. The Nominator/Sponsor is
responsible for overall guidance of the learning experience and serves
in the Mentor role when the Fellow is at the home institution in the
non-placement semester.
- The home and host institutions split the fees. Each pays half
($8,500) of the Program Fee to the American Council on Education and
allocates a $4,000 minimum professional development budget for the
Fellow.
Flexible schedule of periodic visits to another institution
- This is a combination of home+host institution placements, with at
least 12 weeks on the host campus on a schedule to be determined in
consultation with the home institution sponsor and host institution
mentor.
- The home institution covers all fees ($17,000 Program Fee to the
American Council on Education and a $8,000 minimum professional
development budget for the Fellow).
Nominating institutions may apply for grants intended to help
defray costs for nominating a Fellow. A request for grant support should
be made by the president or chief academic officer through the
Nomination of Candidate form.
