The Provost’s Office provides graduate and professional students up to $400 for travel to present a paper or poster at a conference. Preference will be given to applicants who have been accepted to present a paper, but those presenting posters, or participating as a discussant at a conference, biennale or arts festival may also apply. All graduate and professional students are welcome to apply, though preference will be given to students pursuing terminal degrees in their field. It is anticipated that approximately five awards will be made each term (Spring, Summer and Fall). Be sure to plan ahead as requests for funds must be received before travel is initiated according to the application deadlines below.

Applications will be accepted three times per year:

• December 1 for travel in the Spring semester (January through April),
• May 1 for travel in the summer (May through August), and
• September 1 for travel in the Fall semester (September – December).
