CGO 2013 is now offering travel support for eligible students. In order
to be eligible for CGO's travel grant, at the time of the CGO 2013
conference a student must be enrolled at one of the educational
institutions (e.g. a college or a university) in the United States. CGO
may be able to offer travel support for non-US students, but it will
likely be very limited. The actual grant amount per-student (if any -
funding is NOT guaranteed) will be decided after the conference.

The deadline for submitting travel funding applications is February
15th. Please send them by email in the PDF format to Robert Hundt
(rhundt@xxxxxxxxxx).

The travel grant application must include:
- resume
- cover letter explaining reasons for attending CGO
- a letter of recommendation from the student's academic advisor
- estimate of conference-related expenses to be funded

Expenses eligible for reimbursement:
- airfare
- hotel (including internet service)
- conference registration
- meals - up to $100 per day
- local transportation (rental car, taxi, etc.) - up to $150
- parking

In order to get reimbursed,the student will have to present original
receipts and fill out the travel expense claim form (we will provide the
form at a later time)
