Continue Your Access to the OSPool

Any U.S.-based researcher with an academic affiliation can use the OSPool indefinitely, with no allocation or cost to you. Your access to the OSPool is temporary—if you'd like to continue your access to the OSPool, follow the instructions below!

Option 1: Schedule a consultation at the School (preferred)

To continue using your account beyond the School, please schedule a consultation with one of the facilitators during the School! Information on how to schedule a consultation will be provided at the School or via Slack.

In this consultation, we'll chat with you one-on-one about your research and help set up a project to ensure you can use the OSPool for your research computing needs!

Option 2: Submit an application after the School

If you are unable to schedule a consultation during the School or decide to continue your access at a later date, complete the following steps.
