• Informational Sessions
  Thank you for your interest in the Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP). We hold informational sessions for prospective applicants and reviewers from July to September each year. You may register now to attend a virtual informational webinar by navigating to the ‘Event List’ below and clicking one of the webinar registration links in the table. All informational sessions are conducted via Zoom videoconferencing. Each webinar is limited to 700 participants, so please register as soon as possible for the earliest session that fits your schedule to ensure your space in the webinar. Webinar sessions for applicants provide an overview of the GRFP Program and application process. Whether you are a new or returning applicant, it is critical to participate in one of these sessions. Before participating in a webinar, please join a test meeting at: http://zoom.us/test to familiarize yourselves with Zoom and confirm your computer, network, video, and audio will work properly by following the brief instructions in the test meeting. This technology testing takes less than 5 minutes. More information on how to join a test meeting is at: Joining-a-Test-Meeting.
