The Graduate School Travel Grant [PDF]
The program for graduate students has been established to encourage the presentation of the results of research or scholarly activity by providing travel grants for degree-seeking students enrolled in master’s or doctoral programs. The awards are restricted to expenses incurred for participation in a meeting or other appropriate presentation venue. Awards will be made without regard to quotas or distribution among fields and departments. All degree-seeking graduate students at VCU are eligible for this program. Students receiving funding from this program must be the presenter. The Graduate School will match department/grant funds. The maximum award available is $500, and students must submit an application through the graduate program director to the Graduate School at any time during the year. Funding is based on the assumption that support for these programs will remain at the current funding level. Funds may only be used for travel to professional meetings. However, funds are limited, and students applying to the program are not guaranteed support.
All requests must be submitted no later than one month prior to proposed travel. Funds allocated under this program will be distributed according to university policies and procedures using the travel reimbursement procedure.
