Three Yale students — two from Yale College and one from the Yale School of Architecture — are among 35 young U.S. citizens who have been awarded prestigious Gates Cambridge Scholarships for study at the University of Cambridge next year.
Yale College seniors Joshua Feinzig and William Theiss, and School of Architecture student Sofia Singler M.Arch. were selected from among 826 U.S. applicants for the award and were shortlisted for interviews by academics at the Gates Foundation headquarters at the end of January. They and the other 32 other U.S. Gates Cambridge Scholars will join about 55 scholars from other parts of the world; the international scholars will be announced in early April.
