Application Deadline: October 10
Purpose: To remember and honor the Chairs of CCCC who have passed away, the CCCC Executive Committee has created scholarships of $750 each to help cover the costs of four graduate students who are presenting at the annual conference. We invite applications for the 2024 Convention in Spokane, WA.
Eligibility: Full-time graduate students whose presentations were selected through the regular peer review process are eligible to apply.
Award Specifics: To apply, send the following documents as a single PDF attachment in the order indicated below:
- A letter of application, no longer than one page, in which you introduce yourself (and verify that you’re a full-time graduate student) and articulate your plans for a career in composition studies.
- A full copy of your accepted 2024 CCCC program proposal (NOT the acceptance letter), indicating which portion is yours.
- A brief CV (not more than one page).
Applications are due by October 10, 2023, as a single PDF email attachment to
cccc@ncte.org
Recipients will be notified in December.
Other Considerations: In the event that the CCCC Annual Convention moves to an online-only event with no in-person component, recipients will receive a complimentary registration for the convention in lieu of any travel funds.
