New

A new application is for support of a project, which is not currently receiving support from the agency to which the application will be submitted.

Transfer

A transfer application is required when changing grantee institution. A Relinquish Form and a Financial Report need to be submitted to the sponsor before submitting the request for change of grantee.

Supplement

A supplement proposal requests an increase in support during a current budget period for expansion of the project's scope, to meet unforeseen costs at the time of the new or continuation application, or for special purposes which may enhance the progress of the research, such as purchasing a piece of equipment or to support undergraduate and minority students. Some agencies allow requests for supplemental funding by letter, while others require some type of application.

Non-Competing Renewal

A non-competing application requests support for a second or subsequent budget period within a previously approved project period.

Revision

A revision may take one of two forms:

It may be a complete, formal application to replace a prior un-funded version of a new or supplemental application, with explicit reference made to the revisions in the proposal; or
It may be a revised budget and/or project narrative in response to the funding agency's request based on their intent to support the project in its revised form.

Renewal of Grant #

A renewal proposal, called a competing continuation application by some federal agencies, requests support of a funded project beyond the current project period. Renewal proposals compete with other competing continuation, competing supplemental, and new applications for funds.
