When do Grant Applications come out, and who can apply for them?
There are new grants available each semester. Reach out to our general email: daloutdoors@gmail.com, or to the treasurer to inquire about current status of application.
Do you need experience to attend a DOS trip?
We try our best to make trips as accessible as possible. That being said, we also try to cater to more intermediate and expert students as well. As we offer a wide range of trip difficulties, get in contact with a member of the executive or the trip leader themselves to see if the trip is a good fit for you.
