Pre-Award Proposal

The Office of Grants and Sponsored Projects staff reviews publications and grant reference materials; disseminates grant information; assists in finding appropriate external funding sources; secures guidelines; assists in proposal preparation and editing; assists in budget preparation; determines that College approval has been obtained prior to proposal submission to the external sponsor; and submits proposals to the funding agency.

You can find all information regarding tax or DUNS numbers, government districts, indirect costs or fringe rates on the Featured Document - Commonly Needed Information.

Note:  Researchers that apply for financial assistance from NSF must complete the College's certification course from the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) before funding.  In addition, NSF requires undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers participating in funded research to complete CITI's Responsible Conduct of Research Course.  At Ithaca College, this is provided by CITI.  NIH also requires that every NIH-supported trainee receive instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research as well.
