Application forms for continuing students are available at the FSO, but the completed application and supporting recommendations must be submitted by the sponsoring department. Graduate Student Grant Service helps students at the graduate and postdoctoral levels apply for grants and fellowships from funding sources outside the University. Sponsors include federal government agencies, corporations, and public interest groups. GSGS maintains and updates an extensive on-line computer database to aid students in the search for graduate funding opportunities. Other services provided by GSGS include introductory and proposal-writing workshops and individual consultations.
Students also have access to a library containing directories of grant opportunities.
