It covers tuition and fees, a living stipend, a summer grant, and university- funded health insurance for the student for the two academic years. Citizens of South African countries accepted to Cornell for graduate study in any of the eleven fields of study at Cornell, except the MBA, the DVM and any field related to Law, are eligible for the award. Good candidates from South Africa are encouraged to apply for the fellowship award. Africans with permanent residency or citizenship outside South Africa are not eligible. In order to get the fellowship, the applicant must first apply and get admitted to his or her field of study at Cornell. Applicants should enclose a statement of purpose indicating that they wish to be considered for funding from the Provost South African Fellowship Fund. The Field Admission Committee, who may nominate the applicant to the Graduate School for the fellowship, will review their application.

The award is offered to a deserving researcher, usually under the age of 30, for a period of four months. The award usually covers the following costs: - Basic student accommodation in Johannesburg - A monthly stipend - Limited local travel - A return economy class air ticket to Johannesburg from the place of origin Personal insurance and medical aid are the responsibility of the Fellow. The Barratt Rotary Fellow is expected to play a full part in the day-to-day affairs of the Institute. This can include editing, research and general administrative tasks. The Fellow must also pursue original research on South Africa or Southern African issues in a field of his/her choice. This may be academically inclined, but could reflect the particular skills of the Fellow. This must be written up into a 20,000 word monograph before the conclusion of the Fellowship term. From time to time the Fellow may be asked to address various branches of SAIIA and Rotary on topics related to the research being undertaken.
