Fellowship Council Recommendations on Virtual Interviews

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Fellowship Council moved to a virtual interview process in 2020. Based on this experience, the Fellowship Council has determined that virtual interviews enhance equity in the application process through reducing financial barriers to interviewing while minimizing the environmental impact of travel to in-person interviews. As a result, the Fellowship Council requires that all interviews should be conducted virtually and not in person.
