Byzantinists of Color Conference Grant

The Byzantinists of Color Fund supports eligible graduate students and early career contingent scholars (those who have earned their PhD within the last eight years and who do not hold a permanent or tenure-track appointment) to attend the BSC. These grants are open to eligible members who will attend the conference as well as to those who are giving papers.

The Byzantinists of Color grants will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, and will include up to $1,000 to cover flights and lodging, as well as a waiver for registration and all conference fees. Grant recipients are required to attend the all-conference lunch on Saturday. Grant recipients who are presenting papers at the conference may also apply for the BSANA Graduate Student & Early Career Contingent Scholar Travel Reimbursement.

To apply, eligible graduate students and early career contingent scholars who are members interested in attending the conference in person and who do not live in the area of the conference should email the BSANA Vice President (bsana.vp@gmail.com) by October 1 of the conference year.

Application for reimbursement must be postmarked by December 31 of the year of the conference and must include: (1) original receipts for accommodations and travel only (scanned receipts are acceptable for e-mail submission), and (2) a postal address to where the reimbursement check should be sent, or your Paypal address.
