Budget and Application Assistance
Cornell offers administrative support for graduate student grants and fellowships that are awarded directly to Cornell through college-level sponsored research offices or at the department level. If you’re not sure who supports your grant, check with your PI or graduate field administrator.
Available services may include help with drafting budgets and budget justifications, formatting CVs and supplementary documents, completing application or federal forms, and interpreting program solicitations, sponsor guidelines, and Cornell policies.
