- A recipient of the fellowship shall have held their doctoral degree for at least three years and not more than twelve years at the awarding of the Fellowship (that is, received between September 1, 2011Â and September 1, 2020).
- Applications will be accepted from those currently holding a tenured, tenure track, post-doctoral, or comparable (at the discretion of the selection committee) position at an institution in North America.
- A recipient of the fellowship must be a member of the AMS at the time of application.
