For students who are members of APAGS and the first author of aposter or paper, APA will waive your convention registration fee.

In addition, the Science Directorate of APA sponsors an annual competition for graduate student travel awards. The purpose of the Travel Award program is to help psychology graduate students travel to the annual APA Convention to present their research. Information about this award can be obtained from the following website: http://www.apa.org/science/travinfo.html.
