The UF Graduate Student Council (GSC) is now accepting travel grant applications for travel that begins on the following dates:
(1) Domestic travel beginning June 15 – July 22

The application and further information is available on the GSC Grants website at ufgsc.org. The deadline for grant applications is April 30 for both domestic and international travel.
