Also, consider applying for a PROMISE grant from the College of Liberal Arts, as they are generous in their support of graduate student conference and research funding.
Grants for graduate students are small amounts of funding that are designated for specific uses, such as travel grants, small research grants, and childcare grants.
Fellowships are awards to graduate students that typically provide either a yearly stipend for living expenses and/or some amount of tuition coverage. Unlike scholarships, fellowships give graduate students more funding as well as a longer commitment for that funding.
