Supplemental Summer Support Application

All continuing students who receive a Fellowship, Teaching Assistantship, or Graduate Assistantship during this academic year may apply for the Supplemental Summer Research Fellowship or SSRF (up to $4,000 per student) to support your research and academic activities, such as conducting research activities toward your degree, taking a language course required by your graduate program, participating in a fieldwork project, and presenting research at a conference. Furthermore, students who assist in faculty research activities and/or undergraduate student research mentoring may apply for additional Research Assistantship (RA) support (up to $2,500).

All requests will be reviewed by the Dean of Graduate Studies in consultation with the graduate departments, as necessary. Applicants will be notified of the funding decision by April 19, 2024.

Students who receive SSRF and/or RA are required to (1) participate in a 2-hour Summer Research Orientation at the beginning of May 2024, (2) submit a summer research report (~500 words) by August 15, 2024, and (3) present their summer research achievements in either a 3-minute research talk or a digital poster to the GSAS community at the Welcome-Back Picnic in Fall 2024.

Once this application is submitted, all the faculty you have provided emails for will automatically receive your completed application.
