The North Carolina Teaching Fellows Program provides a $6,500 per year scholarship, for four years to 500 outstanding North Carolina high school seniors. Recipients must be legal residents of North Carolina and citizens of the United States. Upon acceptance of the scholarship, the student agrees to teach for four years following graduation from college in one of North Carolina’s public schools or United States Government schools in North Carolina.

- An Amazing Experience!
The combination of an accessible, strong teaching faculty, and the genuine interest and encouragement of caring faculty mentors, allows our Fellows to exhibit the "something special" that holds the key to effective teaching. The Teaching Fellows are afforded a broader view of education as a field of study and as a profession. They have an opportunity to participate in the following activities planned especially for Fellows:
- Intellectually stimulating seminars
- Cultural and Social Activities
- Educational tours which enhance learning
- Volunteer Opportunities in Triad Public Schools
Fellows have been special guests at three Presidential Inaugurations and have traveled throughout the United States and world-wide for culturally enriching experiences. This could include a semester in Europe! North Carolina A&T State University continues its reputation of preparing competent and outstanding education personnel for the state and for the nation.
