    About the GSA

    Our vision and mission is to advocate for all graduate students to the University of Alberta and all levels of government in pursuit of a safe, supportive, respectful, accessible, and inclusive community that fosters the multi-faceted roles played by graduate students.

    All graduate students at the U of A are automatically members of the GSA, with the right to vote in elections (and run for office!), serve on committees, and access GSA benefits.

    Financial Support

    The GSA offers four types of funding to support graduate students during their degree programs. These funds are offered on a first-come, first-serve basis and, as per GSA Policy, "If all available funds have been expended in the specific period, no additional applications will be accepted during that period."
