Important Information For Applicants

The FCI Financial Fellowship is an exciting opportunity for individuals who are serving in, or aspiring to serve in, financial leadership roles within charter schools. This unique program is offered at no cost to participants, making it an accessible and valuable investment in professional growth.

Please note that while tuition is fully covered, travel expenses are the responsibility of the participant. We strongly encourage applicants to discuss this opportunity with their school leadership, as many schools choose to support staff members by contributing to travel costs.

The fellowship experience includes five in-person training sessions designed to build the capacity and expertise of charter school financial leaders. Once fellows are selected, we will determine a centrally located training site to make participation as convenient as possible for all.

Key Dates

  • Applications are now open
  • Reviewed on a rolling basis through September 2026

This fellowship is a powerful opportunity for charter schools to strengthen their financial leadership and for participants to expand their knowledge, skills, and professional network. We look forward to welcoming a dynamic new class of fellows!
