I am doing some research here at Oregon State looking into different universities� policies on waiving F&A for small awards from for profit and not for profit sponsors. For example one of the universities I found automatically waives F&A for awards under $10,000 (not including federal). Any amount over this they expect to receive full F&A. Anyway we are looking in to how and if other people do this as we are contemplating adopting such a policy here. Also any thoughts as to the benefits and drawbacks of having/not having such a policy for small awards would be useful.

Thanks
Bill W
