For summer 2023, we are piloting a new grant program to support student researchers on campus between terms. Students engaged in Kilmer-related activities in Potsdam between May and August are eligible for housing support during the time they're engaged in research.
- For students with an existing individual Kilmer grant, housing grants will be no more than $1000. However, if students will not spend the full $1000 of their Kilmer grant on materials, they may apply the remainder to housing support, up to $2000 total.
- For students participating in a Kilmer lab, the limit of support per student is $1500.
- If budget constraints come into play, preference will be given to those students who are engaged in unpaid research projects, but we will consider all requests.
On-campus summer housing is available from May 22 to August 11, at a rate of $30 per night if the student wants to share a room with another student, and $35 per night for anyone who wants a double room as a single. If a student has off-campus leases or rental agreements already established, we will work with them individually to pay a portion of their housing expenses.
