Funding

Graduate Student Association Travel Fund

The G.S.A. Travel Assistance Fund provides funding for reimbursement of registration fees, travel, and lodging for meetings, conventions, conferences, and workshops sponsored by professional organizations. Priority is given to students attending conferences that are farther away and more expensive to attend. Priority is also given to students who do not receive a large reimbursement amount from their department. This fund cannot be used for research-related travel, trips to fulfill course requirements, or attendance at for-profit seminars.

Graduate students may apply up to three times a year until they receive the maximum amount of funding, but they may not apply for the same event more than once. The amount reimbursed is based on the number of applications and the funds available; on average, applicants receive 75% of the amount they request. GSA checks are issued at the end of each granting period to allow for the most equitable distribution of funds.
