GROW 2024 will run from Friday September 27 until Sunday September 29 at Columbia University.

The GROW conference is intended to provide support and encouragement to undergraduate students considering going to graduate school in the mathematical sciences and to help build a profession in which gender identity is not a barrier to participation. The conference runs annually, and is open to all undergraduates from U.S. colleges and universities, including international students. Students of all genders, sexualities, ethnicities, races, nationalities and religions are encouraged to apply to GROW and these characteristics will not be used in determining funding or participation decisions. This conference supports the Welcoming Environment Statement of the Association for Women in Mathematics

GROW began at Northwestern University in 2015, and ran there for three successive years. It has been hosted at different institutions yearly since then. For previous instances of GROW, see this link.
