Florida Gubernatorial Fellows

The Florida Gubernatorial Fellows Program was created from the belief that the best way to ensure Florida's greatness is to actively educate and cultivate its future leaders. During a nine-month tenure in Tallahassee, this non-partisan program provides Fellows with advanced on-the-job training as well as an invaluable front-line view of the inner workings of government.

ELIGIBILITY

  • Full-time undergraduate (juniors and seniors) and graduate students statewide
  • To maintain full-time status, students take courses at Florida State University, online courses, or fulfill internship and directed independent study requirements.

IDEAL CANDIDATES
