Invitation to UC.

ThembelaniDube — Tue, 22 Apr 2025 20:18:43 GMT

I received a letter inviting me to the User conference. However I have no idea how to fund this trip . I am a student at Esri College. This is the first time I've heard of it . How can I possibly get a sponsor to assist me. I really want to attend it.

I'm not sure what ESRI College is but when i was in school I'd have talked to my advisor and sought out student organizations that offered grants to support student research or other activities, maybe there is something along those lines for you, but definitely start by talking to your academic advisor who should know if there are resources you can tap into.

Thank you. Esri College is a private institution in my country focusing on GiS. I appreciate your advice.

@ThembelaniDube, this doesn't specifically answer your question about finding a sponsor; however, I do want to point out this useful article in our Education Blog that shares information and resources with students planning on attending User Conference 2025: Students Attending Esri User Conference: Don't Miss these Benefits, Tips, and Resources. All the best!
