The Kemp Endowment supports independent student research in any discipline, either in the United States or abroad.  All non-seniors are eligible. 

Applications for summer research can be submitted until February 24, 2020.
In the application, you will enter your faculty mentor's email address and they will receive an email link to upload an advising/mentoring plan. We recommend that you send your proposal and a copy of this advising/mentoring form to your faculty mentor before you complete the application.


 INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS:   Federal tax must be paid at time of disbursement of grant funds, up to 30% maximum, but only 14% if your country of origin has a treaty benefit with the US.  Taxes will be withheld from each grant deposit made to your account.  You are also required to pay 6% state tax, but that will not be withheld from your grant deposits. It is your responsibility to report this income to the state. We advise you to reach out to Susan Caldwell (sucaldwell@davidson.edu) to determine your federal/state tax status so that you may account for this in your budget.
