LOT Verification ScoreStrong

Cross-checked 5 of 5 key facts

Confirmed Our best read Not stated

Good to know

  • +The OECD publishes full guidelines, selection criteria, sample applications and a sample CV before you apply
  • +Payment schedule is published: half on acceptance, the rest once your host confirms your arrival
  • +New collaborations are treated preferentially over ongoing ones

Worth checking yourself

  • !The aggregator calls this fully funded. The OECD's own guidelines have a section titled what the fellowship award does not cover, and it excludes insurance including medical cover, visa costs, laboratory and bench fees, and any family travel. I have set the funding type to Partially Funded to match what the OECD actually says
  • !You are not an OECD official and the lump sum is not tax exempt
  • !Four years of postdoctoral training is required, so this is not realistically open to a young person early in their career
  • !You need a signed acceptance letter from a host institution before you apply, and the original must be posted to the Secretariat
  • !Your current employer has to agree to the application and to your continued employment afterwards
  • !Results only come in January 2027 and visits should not start before March 1, 2027

What we could not confirm

  • ?The OECD website sits behind a bot check I could not get through, so I worked from the OECD's own fellowship guidelines PDF instead. That PDF gives the deadline as 10 September 2026 but does not state a closing time or timezone. The aggregator claims midnight Paris time, and I am not repeating that as fact because I could not confirm it at the source. I also could not pull any photograph from the OECD page for the same reason
