Starr Student Awards
The Starr Foundation-funded Summer Travel Award offers undergraduate or graduate students grants to support an independent study project or to defray the cost of attending a New School program in India or China. The field visit must be taken by the end of summer in the current academic year (before the fall of the following year). The funds can be used towards expenses such as airfare, local transportation, room and board or interpreters. Read more about student publications here.
This opportunity is made possible by a generous gift from The Starr Foundation.
