Travel Grants

NYU's Center for Ancient Studies offers small grants for summer or term-time study through its ANTONINA S. RANIERI INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARS FUND. These grants are intended to support academic travel abroad by Arts and Science undergraduates and graduate students who are studying any aspect of the ancient world. Grants vary, but are generally under $1,500 and may be taken in conjunction with other awards. The Ranieri Fund supports both independent study (e.g., research at foreign libraries) and participation in formal programs (e.g., Goethe Institut language courses, archaeological digs, and international conferences).

Students should submit a brief description of their project explaining how it relates to their studies, an itemized budget, a CV, and a detailed letter of support from an FAS faculty sponsor. Applications are due on March 25 of each year.
