TRAVEL GRANTS

UA Summer Travel Grant Applications are now open

Due to recent student interest in academic travel, the UA is pleased to share that we've been able to secure funds for UA Travel Grants this summer. This grant is oriented towards funding individual students up to $1,000 to attend professional or academic conferences that will enhance students’ undergraduate experience beyond MIT’s campus. Groups are ineligible for Travel Grants. Please first fill out the UA Travel Grant Application and then submit it via the UA Travel Grant Application Form. You can find the Travel Grant FAQ here, and send any questions you have to ua-travel-grant-officer@mit.edu.

Keep in mind that these grants are for individual students, so groups/clubs and organizations may not qualify. Also, as funds are limited, please only apply if the conference falls under the umbrella of what an academic/professional conference is. By doing so, you ensure that the largest number of students are able to attend conferences. In addition to emailing relevant departments to assist in making your trip financially possible, you can find additional sources of funding here.

Please send any questions you have to ua-travel-grant-officer@mit.edu. Looking forward to working with you to help enhance your time here at MIT!
