CHC Conference Travel Grants

"Commonwealth Honors College students in Good Standing accepted to present at a national or international conference are eligible to apply for up to $750 to fund travel costs including airfare, lodging, ground transportation, food, and conference registration costs. CHC students in Good Standing wishing to attend a conference relevant to their studies are eligible to apply for up to $400. Students may submit one application per academic year. Applications should be submitted in advance of the conference date. Applications for a conference the student has already attended may be considered at the end of the academic year if funds are still available. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted. Students may only receive one award per academic year. Multiple students working with the same faculty sponsor who wish to attend the same conference may see a reduction in award funds. Recipients are required as a stipulation of this award to submit receipts for conference travel-related costs that meet or exceed the amount of the award via the post-acceptance feature of AcademicWorks. Funds will be disbursed through the Financial Aid office and received as a refund via Excess Express. Any balance remaining on the bill will need to be covered before a refund is issued. Please notify [email protected] to confirm you have submitted the application."
