About Conference Grants
Another way that EPSO supports members’ development of scholarly and academic progress is through financial support to present research at conferences. The application for travel grants is sent out three times per year. All current EPSY students presenting research conducted as a graduate student are eligible for travel grants.
Travel grants are awarded to students who are presenting oral or poster presentations only, virtually or in person. EPSO does not provide grants for attending conferences as a participant.
