CISP PROVIDES FUNDING The Council on International Studies and Program (CISP) provides limited financial support for a number of initiatives and projects that further international education and scholarship. CISP invites requests for support from faculty and student groups. Please limit appeals to no more than two pages of text plus a budget page. Each request, to be sent with a cover letter to the Chair of the Council, c/o Office of International Education, 544 Capen Hall, Box 601604, should clarify proposed total budget amount for the project or initiative, how much Council support is being sought, what other sources of secured or prospective support, and how the funds requested from the Council will be used. CISP reviews applications monthly through the academic year. In considering requests, the Council 1) encourages requesters to seek matching funds, 2) discourages requests that seek to defray travel expenses by individuals of the payroll of the university, and 3) seeks assurance that any program that takes place on campus will be open to the university community.
