Budget Survey

Thanks to all who took the time to take this survey. We were trying to determine what the prevailing practice is regarding institutional budget requirements for applications for grants that do not require full budgets such as the NIH Modular Grants. To do this we requested each institutional official administrative representative complete the survey. Here are the results of the survey for your information.

Total Respondents - 50

1. For NIH modular grants, does the CENTRAL administration of your institution require submission of a fully detailed budget, with all spending categories, at the same time as the proposal is submitted?

Response Count
