- Students must attend a fully accredited U.S. college or university (located in the U.S. or its territories) for their undergraduate studies.
- Students must also be citizens of the U.S. or its territories or possessions, or be lawfully admitted to the U.S. for permanent residence.

EPA may verify this number with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service of the Department of Homeland Security.
- The GRO Undergraduate Fellowship is intended for students entering their last two years of study before obtaining a bachelor’s degree. Students who have already earned one bachelor’s degree and are pursuing additional degrees are not eligible. The term is for 2 academic years (9 months each) with a required internship during the summer between years. Thus, only students who will be entering their last two years of college will be considered eligible.

- Students attending fully accredited four year U.S. institutions of higher education are eligible to apply. These schools must be among those that are not highly funded for development of environmental research capacity. For the purposes of this solicitation, EPA considers as ineligible those institutions receiving more than $35 million in annual federal research and development funding.
