Use of Funds
RAC will not consider proposals from individuals who have received previous funding and have not submitted the required reports.
Extensions
Request for extension of the granting period should be made in writing to the Chair of RAC prior to the assigned end date. A one-year no cost extension will generally be granted if such a request is made. Requests for extension should include a brief progress report (the amount of remaining funds, a brief description of progress and any papers or awards resulting from RAC funding).
Close of Project
A final progress report is due within 90 days of the completion of the project or the expiration of the award. The final progress report should address major accomplishments including a list of publications, in preparation, submitted, accepted or published, grant applications, pending or awarded funding which were derived through the RAC funded research and an accounting of how the RAC funds were spent-this need not be highly detailed but should reflect how the budget was initially outlined. The final report from the Banner system will serve as a final accounting report.
