American Association of University Women AI policy

Permits AIChecked November 9, 2026

In short

AAUW lets fellowship and grant applicants use generative AI to help prepare their application narratives. AI should assist, not replace, your own ideas and writing, and narratives should reflect your authentic voice and original work. No disclosure requirement is stated.

For applicants

  • You may use generative AI tools to support and enhance the preparation of your application narratives.[1][2]
  • Use AI as an assistive resource only, not as a substitute for your own ideas, experiences, analysis, or writing. Your narratives should reflect your authentic voice and original work.[1][2]
