Jesse M. Unruh Assembly Fellowship - Selection Process

Selection Process

The selection process of the Jesse M. Unruh Assembly Fellowship Program has two stages. During the first stage, completed applications are screened by the fellowship selection committee. Among the qualities looked for in future fellows are scholastic achievement, oral and written communication skills, analytic skills, campus and community service involvement, political awareness, and leadership potential. Approximately 70 applicants are notified in writing in April of their selection for a personal interview. Interviews take place in early May in Sacramento and Los Angeles. Fellows and alternates are selected from those candidates that interview with the selection committee, and written notifications are mailed in May. The deliberations of the selection committee are confidential and final. All applications become property of the program, and if selected, may be distributed to Assembly Members requesting placement.

    ... in the working class, the process of building a family, of making a living for it, of nurturing and maintaining the individuals in it “costs worlds of pain.”
