These funds are not available to support thesis/dissertation research projects or course work. This funding is only for graduate students pursuing a degree program. Requests for funding to travel to international conferences will be considered jointly by the Graduate School and the Office of International Studies and Programs (ISP), therefore, you need to submit only one application for consideration by both offices. Requests are limited to $600 over the course of a student’s graduate student career. Unlike graduate assistantships, these fellowships do not provide student health insurance or tuition/ fee waivers.  \nSend the following to The Graduate School, 466 W.
