Graduate Student Organization Travel Award
INFORMATION:
It is the intention of the Graduate Student Organization (GSO) to recognize outstanding work by OHSU graduate students and to contribute to their professional development by helping fund travel to distant sites for scholarly purposes. A number of graduate students per term will receive reimbursement for personal out-of-pocket costs up to $400 for research-related travel. Students must retain receipts from purchases with a personal debit or credit card for their travel, and reimbursement will occur once the student returns from the trip.

ELIGIBILITY:
Applicants must be enrolled in a master’s or doctoral graduate program in the OHSU School of Medicine's Graduate Studies Program and be in good academic standing at the time the award is granted and funds are dispersed. Travel can occur at any time within the application cycle you are applying. (e.g. for conference in spring, apply and follow the sprig cycle deadline).The award funds can be applied to conference fees, lodging, food, travel costs, and other necessary out-of-pocket expenses.

Examples of Eligible Travel:
• Receipt of honors awarded to the student for scholarly work
