**We encourage all student organizations to follow accessibility guidelines in order to make their events as inclusive as possible. The following website offers a succinct overview: https://www.adainfo.org/hospitality/accessible-meetings-events-conferences-guide/
Special Activity Funding Application
This fund was created to promote activities which will be of benefit to a large number of graduate students.
Interdepartmental Activity Funding Application
The interdepartmental activity fund is a relatively new funding opportunity, set up to encourage social and academic activities that foster interdisciplinary scholarship and/or relationships between students of different departments. Any group of 2 or more Departmental GSA Clubs may request up to $400 of Interdepartmental Activity Funding.
Graduate Symposium Application
A graduate symposium is a formal meeting for the discussion of subjects of academic interest. The GSA funds the symposium so as to give graduate students the opportunity to prepare and present research papers to their peers.
Community Outreach Program Funding Application
This program was created to promote service to local community agencies for the betterment of humanity and to encourage graduate student organization involvement in the community.
