Endowed Graduate Fellowship in LGBTQ Studies

One of our core program strengths is in sexuality studies, and we seek to establish a fellowship fund to support a graduate student specifically in this area of research.  For more information on establishing such a fund, contact Nancy Duncan Porter.

WGSS Undergraduate Scholarships

Georgia State is home to many first-generation college students, many of whom must work their way through college. WGSS students often face an added challenge because they are choosing an area of study that may be misunderstood as superfluous or unpractical. Your contribution helps support an annual undergraduate scholarship of $800, which will offset the costs of student fees and required course texts. For more information on establishing such a fund, contact Nancy Duncan Porter.
