Usage boundary
- Templates, shares, and amounts are draft starting points, not current official award standards.
- Budget-based and lump-sum projects follow different rules; equipment purchases and host-institution policies also affect indirect costs.
- Before submission, check the current call and ask your research or finance office to review the draft.
