***Call for student scholarships***

*Important Dates*

Application Submission Deadline: 12th of February 2022 (23:59 UTC-12)
Notification: 26th of February 2022 (23:59 UTC-12)

*Student Attendance Support*

We are delighted to announce funding for the AAMAS 2022 student
scholarship applications. This will enable the virtual registration fees
to be waived to successful applicants.

To be eligible you must be registered as a full-time student at a higher
education institution (e.g., University).

In allocating awards, we will prioritise to students who are listed as
authors of a paper accepted for AAMAS 2022 (i.e., full paper or extended
abstract at the main conference). Scholarships will then be allocated to
students who had a paper accepted at an affiliated workshop or the
Doctoral Consortium. Funding permitting, we will also try and support
students who do not have a paper accepted but come from
under-represented groups.

Please note that attending the conference is a requirement for being
supported. No support will be possible for students who do not attend
AAMAS 2022.

*Submission Requirements*

To apply, you are required to register and click to complete the Student
Scholarship Application Form within registration, via the following link:

tinyurl.com/aamas2022scholarship

The requested information includes a scanned student ID card certifying
you are registered as a full-time student.

We care about your privacy: The Student Scholarship Application Form is
compliant with GDPR (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2016/679/oj) and
your data will be kept, processed, and then destroyed, according to the
GDPR European regulations and the most recent US guidelines.

Please note that participation in the student scholarship program
carries with it an obligation to attend the conference and an
encouragement to volunteer to act as a student volunteer. Student
volunteers may be asked to support to conference in various ways, i.e.,
to help with running a particular session. Successful US applicants are
also asked to participate in the Doctoral Consortium (DC) either as a
presenter or as an attendee, with no obligation to have a paper accepted
at the DC. US applicants are also asked to write a short report on their
attendance at AAMAS.

Please submit your application by the 12th of February 2022 (11:59pm,
UTC-12) via the link above. We will notify you of your application
decision by the 26th of February 2022 (11:59pm, UTC-12).
If your application is successful, you will receive a code that you can
then use upon registration as a conference fee waiver.

We ask the applicants to not register for the conference before
the scholarship notification. We will not be able to reimburse payments
that have already been made.
