SELECTION 

Fellow status in the International Communication Association (ICA) is primarily a recognition of distinguished scholarly contributions to the broad field of communication. The primary consideration for nomination to Fellow status is a documented record of scholarly achievement. 

Secondary consideration is given to such criteria as service to ICA and socially or professionally significant service to other publics such as business, government, education, etc.

Candidates are nominated by ICA members, and must receive a majority YES vote from current Fellows, and approval by the Board of Directors, in order to achieve Fellows status. 

Visit the Fellows Nomination page to learn more about the nomination procedures or nominate a fellow.

CENSUS 

As of the annual ICA census (August 2023), living ICA fellows account for 4.8% of overall membership.
