Creating Opportunities Through Education
DID YOU KNOW?
Any costs associated with the development or technical review of grant proposals are considered unallowable costs for federal TRIO programs. Funds to pay for any proposal development costs and fees must come from non-Project funds such as institutional or agency resources.
