The Center for Folklore Studies announces one-time, small travel grants for currently enrolled graduate students pursuing the Graduate Interdisciplinary Specialization to present at folklore studies conferences in the spring and summer of 2024. Travel must be complete by August 15, 2024.

In order to apply, please send a documentation of presentation in a conference program, abstract of the presentation and a budget for travel expenses to cfs@osu.edu no fewer than fourteen days before conference travel and/or before April 16, 2024. Please note that funds are limited, so all applications may not be approved and travel grants may only partially fund the travel budget. For more information, please visit the awards page here.

The center’s awards, grants and scholarships are disbursed through OSU Student Financial Aid. Students already receiving substantial aid from other sources should review their current-year packages and consult with Buckeye Link to confirm their ability to accept awards prior to applying. A student may not receive financial aid and other resources in excess of the annual cost of attendance at the university in accordance with federal guidelines.  If you receive additional financial resources and/or assistance, it may impact your eligibility for other financial aid awards. If you have any questions about your individual situation, consult Buckeye Link at 614-292-0300 or by email at buckeyelink@osu.edu.
