The following document - initially compiled by the National Association of Fellowship Advisors and updated for Wabash in July 2016 - contains information about a vast array of fellowships and scholarships which are open to non-U.S. students. They range from the highly specific (in terms of student's home country or area of study) to much more wide open opportunities, such as the Gates-Cambridge, Oxford Clarendon, Schwarzman and Rhodes Scholarships, and the Carnegie Junior Fellows Program.

Echoing Green Fellowships
Echoing Green
Overview
Through their work with nearly 700 Fellows, Echoing Green has developed a standard rubric and clearly defined building blocks for approaching and measuring support. They have also identified the need for any standardization to be flexible enough to accommodate the unique set of challenges of each individual Fellow and their innovative approaches, often unproven models, and distinct and disparate regions of impact.
Each new Fellow is matched with an Echoing Green portfolio manager who will support them in creating a plan for achieving the following universal goals:
Raising money in appropriate amounts for their stage and size of need.
Operating according to clear, written short-term plans and goals.
Internalizing a philosophy of regular measurement against a documented theory of change.
Remaining committed to working on their issue and/or organization, at a high level of passion and energy, beyond the first two years of their Fellowship.
Identifying and mapping solutions for two to three additional areas that may only be relevant to that particular Fellow at that time, such as hiring an executive team or building a thought leadership capacity.
