About the Student Forum Travel Fund

Funds are available to defray the costs associated with attending the ASA Annual Meeting. Each award is $250, and approximately 45 awards are granted each year.

Eligibility Requirements

Applicants must be students who are pursuing an undergraduate or graduate sociology degree in an academic institution and are current student members of ASA.

Review process and selection criteria

Participation in the Annual Meeting program (e.g., paper sessions, roundtables), purpose for attending (e.g., workshop training, Honors Program participation), student financial need, availability of other forms of support, matching funds, and potential benefit to the student are among the factors that are taken into account in making awards. A travel award subcommittee of the ASA Student Forum Advisory Board convened especially for this purpose will select awardees.
