Graduate Student Travel Funding Opportunities
Graduate students in Literature can benefit from many opportunities to receive financial support for travel and research. If you need funding to attend a conference or to support your research, we encourage you to make use of the following funding sources:
- Student Government Association
- Appropriation (Funding) Guidelines and Bill Examples
- Graduate School Student Travel Grants
Travel funds are also available from the First-Year Composition Program. For information, see Dr. Lauren Rosenberg.
*As soon as you know that you will be traveling to a conference you need to fill out a Travel Request Form that is available in the English Department Office. Without this form filled out 3 or 4 months ahead of time, you can't receive any funds originating from the department.*
Be sure to submit your applications for funding at least 2-3 months prior to your travel date to allow adequate time for processing. To have airline ticket cost covered by travel funds, you must go through the Â鶹¹ÙÍø travel agency. Money from granting agencies must already be available to purchase airline tickets.
