Application checklist
- Institutional nomination via the Udall faculty representative (only the faculty representative can give access to the online application)
- 11-question application form
- 800-word essay on the Udall Foundation's core values
- Transcripts for all college coursework
- Three letters of recommendation (leadership, public service, academic achievement)
- Additional documentation for Tribal public policy and health care applicants and eligible US permanent residents
Application tips
- You cannot self-apply: contact your campus Udall faculty representative first, and meet your campus deadline (often January-February 2027, well before the national deadline)
- Choose the category that fits: Environment, Tribal public policy, or Native health care
- Use the 800-word essay to show leadership, public service and commitment to the category, not just academic record
- Confirm your campus internal deadline early — e.g. 15 December 2026 (UNH), 24 January 2027 (UW-Madison), 5 February 2027 (Case Western)
