IMPORTANT!  

IF YOU ARE A NON-HARVARD APPLICANT:

Before you can apply for the Reginald F. Lewis Fellowship, you will need to create a Harvard Key.

After you create your HarvardKey, an email will be sent to you with instructions on how to activate your new account. Once your HarvardKey is active you can start the application process.

FOR ALL APPLICANTS: IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE WHEN FILLING OUT YOUR APPLICATION:

  2.
