Points to remember about IAA fellowships


  • For international fellowships, priority will be given to those candidates who have valid US or other relevant visa, if found eligible
  • All selected candidate who complete the fellowship will be conferred with the certificate in the subsequent annual conference IAACON along with the stipulated stipend ( National Rs.60000/- only and International Rs. 90000/- only). No certificate or stipend without fully completing.
  • All fellows should remember that neither the mentor or the centre of fellowship are responsible for providing any accommodation or travel. Candidate should arrange for the same. The mentors may help in arranging accommodation without any financial burden
  • The mentors will help in the processing of visa with the invitation letter and any other document if necessary and if it can be done by them.
  • Some international fellowships have fellowship fees to be paid to the concerned university which is above the accommodation or travel.
  • For all fellowships certificate and the stipend cheque will be provided in the subsequent IAACON where they need to register.
  • Selected candidate which do not complete the fellowship or partially complete the fellowship will not be conferred any certificate or given any stipend.
  • If cancellation is not due to any solid and valid cause like visa rejected in international and fellow not attending in any subsequent period after being cancelled once due to any unavoidable cause,  then the candidate will be debarred for any further fellowships in IAA.
