Student Opportunity Awards
Travel to Present Funds
The funds are made possible by generous friends and alumni of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø. Awards support travel to present research or creative projects at regional or national meetings or conferences. Grants may be used to defray the costs of travel, lodging, meals and conference registration fees. Award amounts are typically $650-$750 and depend on availability of funds each semester.
Because funds are awarded on a rolling basis, applications should be submitted soon after receiving approval to present and no later than three weeks prior to the conference.
Funds are not available for travel to attend a meeting where the student does not present, or for class-related activities (curricular or co-curricular). Please email sof@skidmore.edu with questions.
For guidance on the application process, see these instructions and the criteria for receiving funding.
