  • Investigators who have requested funding will receive notification from the GBT Student Support Administrator concerning the status of their funding requests.  Notifications regarding funding requests will be issued the week following notifications regarding time requests.
  • If funding is awarded, a Final Funding Proposal, with a detailed budget and budget narrative, must be received by the GBT Student Support Administrator within 30 days of when the allocated observations begin.  The detailed budget should be an elaboration of the Preliminary Funding Proposal.  The data archived during observations are subject to the standard NRAO proprietary policy, namely: data are reserved for the exclusive use of the observing team for a period of 18 months, after which the data are available to any astronomer.
  • Funding will normally be awarded for a period of one year.  The GBT Student Support Administrator will coordinate award activation, disbursement, and deactivation with the awardee institution.  An award may be activated any time after the observations have been scheduled, provided a Final Funding Proposal has been received.  One request for an advance of a portion of the funding may be made to assist with the preparation of the observations in the period between award notification and observation start.  One request for a six month, no cost extension may also be made.  Although this initial program is oriented toward a one year program, a request for support of a two year program of observations for a dissertation may be considered.  Such a request should be accompanied by a more detailed description of the observing program, and should include the dissertation plan. A report summarizing the progress achieved during the first year must be submitted for evaluation by the GBT Student Support Administrator before the funding for the second year will be released.
  • The funding cap for student stipends (undergraduate and/or graduate) is $32,000 with an additional amount of up to $3,000 for miscellaneous expenses (computer hardware and/or student travel to domestic meetings to present acquired data).  Up to $3,000 of the award may be used to offset the costs of administering the award by the investigator's institution.  Tuition costs are not allowed.  Fringe benefits are allowed. Domestic meeting locations include those within the U.S. and its territories, within Canada, or within Mexico.  Tickets for air travel must be purchased from U.S. flag carriers, defined as those holding certificates under section 401 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (49 U.S.C. 1371).
  • Those receiving funding through the GBT Student Support Program remain eligible for the standard NRAO user support programs, including travel to the NRAO for observing and data reduction, and page charges. The standard publication acknowledgment must be augmented by the sentence "Support for this work was provided by the NSF through award GSSP id from the NRAO." The GBT Student Support Administrator will assign an identification code to replace "id."
  • Close Out Reports to the GBT Student Support Administrator must be submitted within six months of expiration of the award. The investigator will provide a letter of appointment for the student(s) supported  by the award, a statement of expenditure of time by the student(s), and documentation of all expenditures for travel and equipment, including original receipts. The GBT Student Support Administrator, normally a scientist on the NRAO staff, will be given assistance by the NRAO Administration Division on business issues. A refund check for any balance of advanced unexpended funds must accompany the close out report.
  • Funding will be awarded under the general terms and conditions contained in the document "General Provisions."  That document includes terms and conditions 1 through 9 above, plus additional provisions based on the Cooperative Agreement for the operation of the NRAO between the NSF and AUI and which apply to the GBT Student Support Program.

  • If funds are requested for a student's stipend or travel to domestic meetings, the requesting investigator must also be the student's advisor. If the work assignment also involves data from related GBT observing proposals, it should cite those proposals by their codes, if known, or titles. If the work is building upon results from a prior award to the advisor under this program, the new GBT observing proposal should demonstrate progress made under that prior award. Investigators who have requested funding will receive notification from the GBT Student Support Coordinator concerning the status of their funding requests. Notifications regarding funding requests will be issued shortly following notifications regarding time requests. The GBT Student Support Coordinator, normally a scientist on the NRAO staff, will be given assistance on business issues by the the GBT Student Support Administrator from the Observatory Business Services.

If the funding cap of $32,000 is being requested for student stipends, no more than $3,000 of that cap may be used for administrative costs. If less than the funding cap is being requested for student stipends, the administrative costs may be no more than 10 percent of the stipends. Tuition costs are not allowed. Fringe benefits are allowed. Domestic meeting locations include those within the U.S. and its territories, within Canada, or within Mexico.
