NOTE: Every Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), whether a Program Announcement (PA), Request for Application (RFA) or Request for Proposals (RFP) has its own, unique application template. To make sure you are using the correct one, select it from the "Grant & Funding" announcement list. All unsolicited or investigator-initiated proposals use the "parent" announcements, found here.

All other open opportunities can be found searching grants.gov. This link allows one to search by the newest opportunities; browse categories; browse agencies or browse eligibility. Another search is available here.

The Research Foundation for SUNY is a registered institution and is eligible to apply for all of these funding opportunities. There is no need for you, as the PI, to register.
