CRRS Non-Stipendiary Fellowships

The CRRS offers a limited number of non-stipendary fellowships to scholars who are visiting or reside in the Toronto area, and who wish to make sustained use of the Centre’s library and resources. Fellowships include membership in the Victoria University Senior Common Room and free access to other University of Toronto libraries.

The CRRS welcomes inquiries from individuals who are interested in holding their SSHRC or other postdoctoral fellowships at the Centre.

The CRRS will normally grant two Eisenbichler Fellowships per year of $500 CAD each to scholars who have been granted CRRS fellowships and who are in need of financial assistance to cover travel costs to the Centre and/or living expenses while in residence.  This award is open to both fellows who have completed their PhDs and those who are ABD.

Scholars who wish to be considered for the Eisenbichler Fellowship should indicate this by completing an application for funding to be submitted with their fellowship application.  The Eisenbichler Fellowship application should include two documents: a letter indicating financial need and a brief budget.  Recipients of this award may use the funds to cover the following kinds of expenses generated by their visit to Toronto: travel, meals, and accommodations.  Original receipts must be submitted in order for a cheque to be issued.
