Travel awards may be applied only to conference registration fees and related expenses, such as travel, lodging, and food, incurred to attend the Joint Annual Meeting.
Only current SAA members are eligible for this award. The primary criterion for selection will be financial need. Applicants must complete an online form and attach a résumé or curriculum vitae.
Applications are due no later than May 1, 2018.
