Food 4 Thought Student Travel Scholarship Application
Update (as of March 14th): We are currently out of funds for our travel scholarship. We are working to raise more money and will be able to award more funding on a rolling basis, should that be possible. In the meantime, everyone who fills out the form will automatically be placed on a waitlist (on a first-come-first serve basis).

Our inaugural Food 4 Thought (F4T) Festival will take place on April 12-14, 2024 at the historic campus of Harvard University, located in Cambridge, MA. We are committed to making this event as accessible to all students interested in attending and do not want physical proximity to prevent anyone from coming. 

If you would like to apply for a Student Travel Scholarship, please fill out this application ASAP, as they will be awarded on a rolling basis until funds are depleted. Applicants must currently be a student in an undergraduate, masters, or PhD program to be considered.

We strongly recommend that you have a plan for your flights and hotels at the time you fill out this form. We will let you know within 1 week if you have received a scholarship. Please be prepared to book your travel within days of receiving notice (prices will increase the longer you wait, and we cannot guarantee funding amounts higher than the amount we originally awarded).

As our funding is limited, we are unfortunately not able to guarantee funding to all interested attendees. We require that you first see if your university offers any scholarships (career development, department funding, research scholarships, etc.). Feel free to use this template when requesting funds from your university.

Travel Information
Let's talk about your trip to Food 4 Thought.

For flights, please fly into Boston Logan Airport. We recommend using the platform Kayak to find the most cost-effective options.

For hotels, please click the link below for our recommended stays. However, you may also use Kayak and search for hotels in the areas of Woburn, Burlington, Lexington, and Medford for your stay. Hotels slightly further from Cambridge/Boston are substantially cheaper, and we will also be looking into facilitating ride sharing to the conference venue. 
What amount of money are you applying for? Please specify funding distributions. (i.e. $400 -- $50 Train Ticket + $350 Hotel for 2 Nights).

*Note: We ask that you look into the most cost-effective travel and lodging to increase your likelihood of receiving a scholarship.* 
*
Where are you located? (Include city & country) *
What assistance would you need? Select all that apply. 

*If you are travelling with a large group from your university, we recommend staying in an Air BnB together!*

*If you have friends in the Boston area, we highly encourage you to reach out about staying with them.*

Will anyone else be traveling with you (such as others from your university)? Please include all first and last name(s), if possible.

Are you comfortable sharing a hotel room with other students?

*Note: Sharing hotel rooms, especially with those travelling with you, will greatly help us reduce hotel costs and increase the number of students we can fund.*
*
Are you comfortable in a co-ed room? (i.e. mixed genders) *
If we are unable to fund your hotel room, would you be comfortable staying in the dorm of one of our Harvard student coordinators? 

*Note: This is entirely free of cost! Both parties will be required to sign a Code of Conduct form.*
*
What is the name of the closest airport/bus station/train station to you? *
We will only be considering housing for the nights of Friday, April 12th and Saturday, April 13th. 

If you are travelling from exceptionally far (i.e. internationally), we may be able to extend your stay to include the nights of Thursday, April 11th and Sunday, April 14th. Do you need your lodging extended?

Will you still be able to attend the festival with partial reimbursement (>50%)? *
