Other Funding Resources
Previously GSAC, the former student government for SAS students, provided graduate students with grants for travel. However, after the creation of SASgov and GAPSA in 2007, travel grants became the domain of GAPSA. We provide the following list of sites where SAS graduate students can obtain funding for travel and research.
- SAS travel funding for SAS PhD students presenting at conferences (expenses up to $300)
