CFCD Exceptional Supplemental Grant Application

CFCD Supplemental Grant Funding Application

Faculty who expend their full allocation but have further funding needs for exceptional or critical research / teaching opportunities in that year may apply to CFCD for supplemental grant funding.
Application Review

We review applications on an ongoing basis and will normally notify applicants of our decision within 1-2 weeks.
Reminders on Grant Parameters

Please review the CFCD grant guidelines in the Moneybook, pg. 12, prior to submitting this application. Please note all supplemental grants are subject to the same policies as regular allocation funding.

CFCD reminds faculty that supplemental funding is meant to support or enable exceptional opportunities or needs, rather than routine additional expenses.

Funding at any level is not guaranteed, and faculty should not necessarily expect full / maximum funding even if an award is made.

Contact Jess Henry-Cross (jhenrycross@smith.edu) or Susanne Kiley (skiley@smith.edu) with questions.
