Graduate Student Registration & Conference Support Form
It is the goal and mission of the Office of Student Engagement and Graduate Student Council to support graduate students in their development while pursuing their education. This funding request form was created to assist in the professional development aspects of graduate student life to assist in financially supporting graduate students who would like to attend a conference or professional development opportunity. 

Please note that in an effort to support and expand the offerings of graduate student life, limitations to the funding support have been put in place. The Graduate Student Council have made concerted efforts to enhance the graduate student life experience overall through implementing socials, community service projects, broader community service projects, and on-campus resources to better serve this population. With that, funding allocation looks different than in past years. 

50% Graduate Student Life Experiences open to entire graduate student body
50% Individual Support for Graduate Student Registration & Conference Support

Guidelines created based on previous submissions and future goals for graduate student life:
  • Graduate students are able to request up to $300 for the academic year in support of their attendance at a conference. (September 1, 2024 - May 30, 2025)
  • Requests are reviewed weekly and responses will be sent by the end of each week (Friday). Requests received after Thursday at noon will be reviewed the following week.
  • Requests made should be for conference registration fees or travel expenses (i.e. lodging and travel)
  • Meals and food are not covered and should not be included. 
  • Trainings or paid exams required for your major are not covered.
  • Funds for research/dissertation incentives are not covered.
  • Individual organizational memberships are not covered but institutional partnership recommendations are welcomed to decrease individual costs. (not a guarantee)
  • Funding is only available in the form of reimbursements, and original receipts/email confirmations are required in order to process payment. You MUST submit receipts/confirmations within one week of the date the transaction(s) take(s) place. Anything submitted after that one week mark will void the approval of your funding support. 
  • Funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis so there is no guarantee that all requests will be approved. You should not make purchases until we confirm that your request is approved. There is also no guarantee that the full amount you request will be approved, it is possible that only a portion of the request will be funded based on availability and need.
Submission Calendar
  • Fall 2024 Submissions begin September 3 - December 13
  • Spring 2024 Submissions begin January 13 - May 9
** NOTE: Dates for your proposed conferences do not need to fall within these dates, however these are the times requests will be reviewed. We will do our best to review submissions during holiday and weather closures but do not guarantee a response during those times.
