Princeton's School of Public and International Affairs has selected five Politics students for their prestigious Scholars in the Nation's Service Initiative (SINSI) for 2025. 

SINSI fellows complete a two-year Master in Public Affairs with a full scholarship for tuition and living expenses at the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs, and a fellowship with two years of paid work in a government organization. SINSI interns receive support to complete 10-week summer internships. While traditionally focused on the federal government, SINSI also places students in multinational, state, and local governments.

Established in 2006 and housed in Princeton SPIA, SINSI encourages, supports, and prepares high-achieving students to pursue careers in the federal government, in both international and domestic agencies. The initiative aims to provide the professional skills and direct experience needed to succeed in the public-policy arena. SINSIs have served in more than 40 U.S. government agencies and departments.
