column --> <!-- BEGIN: main column --> <div id="MainColumn"> <div class="Content"> <h1>Application Resources</h1> <div class="wysiwyg-output"> <p>The application process is comprised of eight sections:<br/> <br/> • Personal information<br/> • Addresses<br/> • References<br/> • Positions<br/> • Languages<br/> • Organizations<br/> • Education<br/> • Supporting documents<br/> <br/> Applicants can return to any part of their application to make changes, if necessary. When all the information has been provided, the applicant must submit the application by selecting the "Final Submit" button no later than the September 19 deadline.<br/> <br/> Please focus your application on <strong>one</strong> project only. Applications that attempt to span too many disparate disciplines, or that include too many objectives, are less competitive than those that propose a balanced, focused goal.<br/> <br/> <strong>References</strong><br/> <br/> Applicants may submit the names and addresses of no more than four references. Letters of recommendation will be solicited from references via email. Appropriate references are individuals who are familiar with the applicant's professional work.<br/> <br/> <strong>Supporting documents</strong><br/> <br/> Applicants must submit three supplementary statements in PDF format:<br/> <br/> 1. A brief narrative account of your career, describing your previous accomplishments. Please do not substitute a resume. This account should mention prizes, honors, and significant grants or fellowships that you have held or now hold, showing the grantor and the inclusive dates of each award.<br/> <br/> 2. A list of work:<br/> <em><br/> Publications</em>, if you are a scholar, scientist, or writer. Give exact titles, names of publishers, and dates and places of publication. Playwrights should also include a list of productions. If you are a scholar or scientist, you may provide hyperlinks to your listed publications.<br/> <br/> <em>Exhibitions</em>, if you are an artist.<br/> Include a chronological list of shows, citing dates and places, and a list of collections in which your work is represented. Forthcoming shows should also be mentioned. Work exhibited on websites and blogs alone does not constitute a sufficient record of accomplishment for our competition.<br/> <em><br/> Performances</em>, if you are a choreographer. Include locations and dates.<br/> <em><br/> Compositions</em>, if you are a composer.<br/> Include a chronological list of your compositions, citing titles and dates; a list of your published compositions, citing the names of publishers and the dates of publication; and a list of recordings. First public performances should also be listed, giving names of performers and dates.<br/> <em><br/> Films or Videotapes</em>, if you are a film or video maker.<br/> Include a chronological list of your works, citing titles and dates of completion, and dates and places of major public showings of each.<br/> <br/> 3. A statement of plans for the period for which the Fellowship is requested. Applicants in science or scholarship should provide a detailed, but concise, plan of research, not exceeding three pages in length. Applicants in the arts should submit a brief statement of plans in general terms, not exceeding three pages in length.<br/> <br/> Financial considerations do not play a part in our evaluations, and applicants should not include a budget in the statement of plans. When candidates are selected as Fellows, they are then asked to submit budget information for their projects.<br/> <br/> In making our inquiries on your behalf, we send each person you name as reference only a copy of your statement of plans; therefore, the statement of plans you submit must be <em>self-contained</em>.<br/> <br/> <strong>Submission of examples of work</strong><br/> <br/> After your application is received, you will receive an email confirmation. You may also receive a separate email with further instructions about when to submit examples of your work. <strong>Please do not send work examples until you receive these further instructions. <br/> </strong><br/> <a href="/web/20120828180107/http://www.gf.org/applicants/2013-United-States-Canada-Competition-Timeline/">Follow this link to view the 2013 United States and Canada Competition Timeline</a><br/> </p> </div> <div class="ClearFix"><!-- do not remove --></div> </div> </div> <!-- END: main column --> <!-- BEGIN: right column --> <div id="RightColumn"> <div class="wysiwyg-output"> <table class="feature-photo"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p><img width="215" height="215" src="/web/20120828180107im_/http://www.gf.org/system/assets/0000/0335/KyongMeeChoi_morphed_215x215.original.jpg?1226639099" alt=""/></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="caption"> <p><span class="description">Kyong Mee Choi, <em>Morphed</em>, Acrylic,18 x 18. 2008, Fellow, Music Composition.<br/> </span></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </div> <!-- END: right column --> <div class="ClearFix"><!-- do not remove --></div> <!-- BEGIN: footer --> <div id="FooterWrapper"> <div id="PageFooter"> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://www.gf.org/privacy-policy">Privacy Policy</a><span>|</span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://www.gf.org/terms-of-use">Terms of Use</a><span>|</span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://www.gf.org/sitemap">Sitemap</a><span>|</span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://list-manage.com/subscribe?u=59d983d0914a509b37f82546c&id=5039a73dec" onclick="return newsletter_popup('https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://list-manage.com/subscribe?u=59d983d0914a509b37f82546c&id=5039a73dec')" target="_blank">Sign up for Updates</a><span>|</span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://www.gf.org/about-the-foundation/contact-us">Contact Us</a></p> <p>Copyright © 2012</p> </div> <div id="SocialLinks"> <iframe src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107if_/http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?app_id=210848718962748&href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2FJohn-Simon-Guggenheim-Memorial-Foundation%2F130008750420913&send=false&layout=button_count&width=90&show_faces=false&action=like&colorscheme=light&font=arial&height=21" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:90px; height:21px;" allowtransparency="true"></iframe> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://twitter.com/GuggFellows" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false" data-show-screen-name="false" data-width="77px">Follow @GuggFellows</a> <script src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107js_/http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120828180107/http://www.flickr.com/photos/jsgmf/" target="_blank"><img src="/web/20120828180107im_/http://www.gf.org/images/icon.flckr.gif" width="16" height="20" alt="Flickr"><span>Flickr</span></a> </div> <div class="ClearFix"><!-- do not remove --></div> </div> <!-- END: footer --> <div class="ClearFix"><!-- do not remove --></div> </div> <!-- END: body --> <hr/> </div> <!-- END: layout --> </div> <!-- END: page --> <!-- BEGIN: Google Analytics --> <script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
