Funding for Conference (after switching schools)

[ParisGeller]

Background: I am a psychology major who completed my degree and an honours thesis this year (graduating in May!). I will be attending graduate school at another university starting in September.

 

Question: I am looking into conference opportunities to present my thesis and have found options in October. However, they require travelling across the country. I know there are travel grants available through my graduate school but I am wondering if I will be eligible if the research I want to present was conducted with a professor at a different school. Does anyone have experience with this?

Funding criteria vary dramatically so you'll have to check. I've had conferences paid for where they didn't care, and others I've seen specify that the institutional affiliation I submitted under also needed to be the way paying, or the faculty member with a grant only paying if they were a collaborator on the research.
