Message from Graduate Student Government Regarding Travel Grants

Greetings Graduate Students!

 I want to thank you all for a great year and your continued participation in Graduate Student Government programs and events. The 2011 Fall Travel grants that were completed by students and certified by advisors (132 total) have been processed and are with USC Disbursement office for payment, and will be available approximately 6-8 weeks from today. If you need to access your application, please check here for the direct link to the old website: http://gsg.usc.edu/gpssfund/travel_grants/

For Spring 2012 applicants, GSG has been working on developing a brand new travel grant website to fix many of the errors which have occurred in the past. We expect the Spring 2012 Travel Grant Applications to be available on our website (gsg.usc.edu) by mid-May, possibly earlier. We will extend the deadline as needed for applicants to have plenty of time to submit their applications, likely one month after the site/applications launch.

 GSG will continue to provide summer travel grant applications as well. Please expect Summer 2012 applications to be available later this summer.

 If you have any questions regarding Fall 2011 travel grants or prior, please contact the President Ryan Estes at gpsspres@usc.edu. The GSG Finance Director, is not responsible for travel grants although he took a great deal of personal time to help process them. Please do not send him any inquiries. If you have questions regarding Spring 2012 travel grants or the new website, please send an inquiry here: http://www.gpssusc.com/home/about-gpss/contact-us.html

Please be patient with our system and know that we are working diligently to improve the application process as best as possible. Stay tuned to the newsletter for more updates!

Thank you and Fight On!
