Honors Ambassadorial Grant
The Honors Ambassadorial Grant provides financial support for Honors students who are engaging in
scholarly or creative activities in a public venue or forum, such as an academic conference, concert, stage
performance, or exhibit (and thus, the Honors student serves as an “ambassador” of the Honors Program).
Such activities must be affiliated with a faculty mentor, with a report on these activities to be submitted or
presented to the Honors Program upon their conclusion.
Honors Ambassadorial Grant Highlights
- Items funded include registration, travel, lodging, meals, and other related items if
specifically approved
- Relevant information includes the conference/venue name, dates, location, description
of the project to be presented, and estimated cost
- A report on the activities must be submitted or presented upon their conclusion
- Deadlines: No fixed deadline; grant requests must be submitted with
adequate time prior to the conference/venue/event date to allow for grant consideration, travel
planning, and other logistics
To apply for the Honors Ambassadorial Grant, you must complete the following form and submit
the following items:
- A description of your completed work, including final title and authorship
- An itemized and priced list of costs for presenting or publishing this work
- A letter of endorsement from your faculty advisor, emailed to
honors@lmu.edu. This letter should:
- Signify faculty endorsement for the student work completed under his or her guidance
- Describe the significance of the project for the student and how it relates to the faculty
member's own work
- Describe the presentation/publication venue and its role in the student’s and
faculty member’s discipline
Upon submission, your proposal will be reviewed and you will be contacted directly about the results of this review.
