The ALT has a limited amount of funds to provide partial support for a small number of participants attending the ALT VI meeting.

Financial support for ALT VI will be awarded on the basis of the following two factors: (a) high quality of abstract; and (b) financial need of applicant.

Persons wishing to apply for financial support should include an application for financial support when submitting their abstract. The application should consist of a brief (one paragraph) statement explaining why the applicant considers himself/herself to be in need of financial assistance. No applications for financial support will be considered after the January 1 deadline.

The ALT funds are intended for scholars from developing countries and for students anywhere. Currently-employed professional linguists from affluent developed countries should not apply.
