Description

The AAG Community College Travel Grants is awarded to outstanding students from community colleges, junior colleges, city colleges, or similar two-year educational institutions to attend the next AAG Annual Meeting. Students from minority and underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply. Students do not need to formally participate in the meeting to be eligible. However, if they do, please acknowledge support from the program in any presentations or publications. Preference will be given to geography majors, or from institutions which do not have geography programs, to applicants who have taken geography courses and/or plan to continue to study geography in four-year institutions. Applicants should also submit one letter of recommendation from a college instructor. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Association of Geographers for more information.
