Scholar Programming

Scholars can apply for Professional Conference Grants

Our Professional Conference Grants Application is now live! Currently enrolled, eligible TheDream.US Scholars can now apply for funding to cover their flight/train, hotel, and/or conference registration fees through these two opportunities: 


1) Individual Conference Grants: Scholars apply to attend a conference of their choice and participate individually.  


2) Group Conference Grants: Scholars apply to attend one of two conferences with a group of other TheDream.US Scholars.


To find out more about eligibility criteria, conference dates, and how to apply, please visit our website by clicking the links above. 


We have also created this flyer for your use in promoting these opportunities to your Scholars. You can also review the email announcement, which was sent to Scholars regarding these grants earlier today. 


If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Chris Aviles at chris.aviles@thedream.us.
