Student Grants

A limited number of student grants are available to help pay for travel, accommodations, and registration fees to enable full-time students to attend FAST '24. Please note that USENIX relies on sponsorship to finance student grants, and funding is strictly limited. We do not guarantee assistance to speakers or participants, and student grants rarely cover complete travel costs.
