Fellowships for foreign students in the U.S.

[Firled]

I am a Canadian student pursuing a doctoral program in the U.S. It has been frustrating since I am ineligible for most of the fellowships I come across. You are required to be at least a U.S. permanent resident (green card holder). Are there any sources for international fellowships?

Hi Firled: My question to you is, "why haven't you applied for a fellowship through the SSHRC in Canada?" As long as you received a previous degree from a Canadian University, you are eligible to apply for the SSHRC fellowship.

I applied for a SSHRC for the 2009 competition and was B-listed (rejected)so was looking for alternatives.
