Student Conference and Event Mini-Grants

Looking for program funding for yourself or an organization? Rockefeller Center mini-grants cover up to $1,000 for conference registration fees for an individual student or  to cover the costs of an on-campus event or program by a student organization.

Please note that the 2024-2025 Mini Grant Program is closed to applications and will open back up on 7/1/25 for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Application Information

Please note that the 2024-2025 Mini Grant Program is closed to applications and will open back up on 7/1/25 for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Application deadlines occur every two weeks. Applicants will be notified of the committee's final decision shortly after the deadlines. Applications must be received prior to the conference and funding cannot be approved retroactively. Out of fairness to the applicant pool, applications will not be granted expedited consideration in the case of missed deadlines. Approved funding is distributed after the conference takes place and all post event requirements have been submitted.
