NeMLA awards two Book Prizes every year for the best unpublished book-length manuscript on any of NeMLA's focal literatures, languages, media, or cultures; and the best unpublished fiction book in English.
This is a reminder that all NeMLA 2024 participants and chairs must be registered. The deadline to register for the convention is December 9, at midnight. After that, participants will pay a late fee; if they have not registered by January, they will be removed from the session.
The Graduate Student Caucus provides a number of travel awards to graduate students. The awards are open to any graduate student (including international students) who has been accepted to present or chair a session at the Annual Convention.
Postcolonial Studies Essay Award: NeMLA is proud to sponsor a special essay prize, awarded by the Diversity Caucus, for a revised paper in Postcolonial Studies presented at one of the previous two NeMLA Conventions.
Creative Writing Award: The award will be given for a presentation given at the previous Convention on a Creative Session.
The Northeast Modern Language Assoication Humanities Dissertation Fellowship provides financial support to qualified NeMLA graduate student members in their final year of writing the dissertation. The fellowship amount is $5000 per award.
