Opportunities for Graduate Student Funding 

NEW Graduate Student Prizes:

Due to the generosity of the Conference Co-Sponsors listed on this site--as well as the individual gifts of several registrants--the conference committee is delighted to announce that there will be an increased number of Graduate Student Prizes offered at NASSR 2003. The committee therefore encourages all graduate students to submit their eight to ten page papers for these prizes.   The deadline for submissions for Graduate Student Prizes awarded by the 2003 NASSR Conference Committee is July 1, 2003.  If you wish to be considered for these prizes, please e-mail your completed essay--together with your name and institutional affiliation--to nassrnyc@fordham.edu, with the words "Graduate Student Prize" in the subject heading.  Submissions should be no longer than ten double-spaced pages.

Graduate Student Travel Bursaries (Stipends):

NASSR offers four travel bursaries of CDN$250 each to assist graduate students presenting papers at the annual NASSR conference. The competition is open to all NASSR members who are graduate students.  At least one bursary goes to a student at a U.S. university and at least one to a student at a Canadian university.  Applicants should submit a copy of their conference proposal, proof of graduate student status, and an estimate of travel costs by May 31, 2003, to the NASSR Executive, Department of English, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada N6A 3K7. Please note that all of those applying for bursaries must be NASSR members.  Bursary cheques will be distributed at or soon after the conference.
