Grants and Funding

When applying for funding– READ THE APPLICATION CAREFULLY!  Be mindful when applying to unfamiliar grant funding sources. The Funding Agency/Company may insist that their terms and conditions apply as soon as you make the application, and they may not be prepared to negotiate terms. Also, be aware that some funding sources may not agree to keep the contents of your application confidential.
