About Teach for India Fellowship
The Teach For India Fellowship is an opportunity for India’s brightest and most promising individuals to serve as full-time teachers to children from underserved communities.
Through this experience, our Fellows cultivate the knowledge, skills and mindset necessary to become leaders in the movement for educational equity.

You are eligible to apply for the 2024 Fellowship cohort if you:
- Completed graduation by June/July 2024.
- Are applying for the first time for 2024 Fellowship cohort, since July 2023.
- Are a citizen of India or Overseas Citizen of India (OCI).
What do Fellows do?
Our Fellows are placed in one of 8 cities across India (Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai, Pune), in an English medium government or low-income private school. Here, they spend 2 years as a full time class teacher or subject teacher (specifically English, Maths, Social Studies or Science) to Students from 1-10th standard.
Application Process
- Stage I: Application Form– Introduce yourself by sharing your academic and professional history, as well as your interests, experiences, and motivations for joining the Fellowship. As Fellows teach in English, an online English Assessment evaluates your proficiency in the language as part of the online application.
- STAGE II: Phone Interview– For some applicants, we want to know more and we do so through a 30-minute phone interview.
- STAGE III: Assessment Centre– The final stage of selection! Here you’ll engage with Teach For India and other applicants through activities including sample teaching, critical thinking, a group activity and an interview.
Application Deadline
The selection process for each cohort of the Fellowship has multiple rounds. You can apply only once per cohort i.e. if you applied for the 2024 cohort since July 2023, you cannot apply again till July 2024 (for the next cohort).
Once you submit your application, Teach for India will contact you via email within 10 working days with the outcome of your application and any next steps.
Upcoming Deadline: 4 February 2024.
