Individuals may not apply to an NEH Landmarks of American History and Culture program whose director is a family member, is affiliated with the prospective applicant’s institution, or is someone with whom the prospective applicant has previously studied.
- At least three spaces per week (up to six spaces total for a program) may be reserved for teachers who are new to the profession (five years or less of teaching experience).

- Project applicants who accept an offer to participate are expected to remain during the entire period of the program and to participate in its work on a full-time basis. If a participant is obliged through special circumstances to either arrive after the beginning of the program or depart before the end of the Landmarks program, it shall be the recipient institution’s responsibility to see that only a pro rata share of the stipend is received or that the appropriate pro rata share of the stipend is returned if the participant has already received the full stipend.
- To receive your stipend you must complete two tasks:
- You will produce and upload to the website your curricular project. This should be useful for teachers across the country and be of publishable quality. You will have a wide selection of suggested curricular projects with the idea that you build something that is relevant to you, your students and your community. You must attend all sessions and complete your curriculum project to be eligible for the stipend.
- You are required to submit the provided evaluation.
