Conference funding is now available for Honors students. If you are an Honors student who has been accepted to present your work at a professional conference, you are eligible to apply for financial assistance. Students may apply for up to $1500 to cover costs associated with conference participation. If selected, you will receive the funding paid as a scholarship directly to your bursar's account.
Students must apply for funding in advance of the conference. There are 4 cycles of funding per year, with application deadlines:
