Application Process

The deadline is December 31, 2010. Applications must be submitted through our online application system. You can review the application questions before you start your application. You can also start and save your application and submit it at a later time. If you have not already registered on TheIHS.org, the application requires a short registration process.

Supporting documents must be uploaded to the application as electronic files. We no longer accept supporting materials by mail. Please begin collecting supporting materials early, as certain items may take time to compile. Instructions for how to submit supporting materials are listed at the end of the online application.

You can list your recommenders on your application. We will send requests to these recommenders for their letters of recommendation only after you submit your application. The deadline for your recommenders to submit recommendations back to IHS is January 21, 2011.

There is a $25 application fee that you may pay by credit card or check. Payment instructions appear at the end of the application.
