Application Process 

Atlas Corps considers applications on a rolling basis and year-round, it is advised you apply by priority deadlines for a timely consideration of your application. The application is a multi-step process.

Timeline 

When you apply for Atlas Corps programs, you’re not applying for a specific start date or a specific Host Organization. You are applying for the opportunity to be considered by Atlas Corps (and potential Host Organizations) for leadership development programs starting throughout the year.

Fellow Classes start approximately four times a year (typically January, April, July, and October). Placement cycles where top Semi-Finalists are matched with submitted Host roles take place approximately 1-4 months prior to the next Fellowship start date. For example, Fellows are placed in the January class from September to early December, and the July class from March to early June.

Fellows are notified approximately 4-8 weeks before the start of any program. Acceptance to a Fellowship class cannot be deferred to a future start date. You would typically have around 4–8 weeks to give notice to your current employer before starting the Fellowship.
