Re: Off Campus Indirect Cost Rate Hahn, Janet M 11 Nov 2005 14:39 EST

We use the simplified F&A form.  We used to have one rate.  Then one
year, we were assigned an agreement with two rates.  It is currently
25.9% MTDC for on-campus projects and 15% for off-campus projects.

Feel free to call or e-mail me if you have other questions.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Off Campus Indirect Cost Rate

We are submitting a couple of research proposals to the Institute of
Education Sciences of the US Dept of Ed.  The RFA states that:

"The Institute anticipates that the majority of the research will be
conducted in field settings and many of the other activities will be
conducted off-campus.  Hence, the applicant is reminded to apply its
negotiated off-campus indirect cost rate, as directed by the terms of
the applicants negotiated agreement."

We are a PUI with one federally-negotiated rate.  I have interpreted
that as something that applies to all research at our institution, both
on and off campus.  I would appreciate advice from this group about that

interpretation as well as advice about where I could find documentation
to help me back up this interpretation.

Are there PUIs out there with two rates?  What is the basis for it?

Thanks in advance.
