NTA Equity and Inclusion Travel Fellowship

Advance Your Career with the NTA Equity and Inclusion Travel Fellowship

The National Tax Association (NTA) is pleased to announce the “NTA Equity and Inclusion Travel Fellowship,” targeted toward graduate students and early career scholars who have overcome significant barriers on their path towards a career in tax or public finance. This scholarship is designed to support the participation of graduate students and other new scholars who have traditionally not participated in the National Tax Association conference, including underrepresented students and others who haven’t historically attended our meetings.

This fellowship provides significant financial assistance to those engaged in the theory and practice of public finance, including public taxation, spending, and borrowing.

• Must be able to attend the 2026 NTA Annual Meeting (November 12 – 14, 2026) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
