I concur with your co-worker. We
had a collaborative proposal with another institution and we were funded but
the other agency was not.

Subject: [RESADM-L] NSF collaborative proposal - can they choose only
one?
Hi
Folks,
My
co-worker and I are having a discussion about NSF separate, linked
collaborative proposals – she said it’s always been her understanding that NSF
can choose just one institution to fund if they want to, whereas if it’s just
one proposal with a subcontract to the other institution, they either fund the
project or don’t.
I
have never heard this, and I can’t find anything about it on the GPG. My
understanding is regardless of whether it’s one proposal with a subcontract, or
two (or more) linked proposals, NSF either funds the project or doesn’t fund
it, they don’t choose one institution to fund and leave the other one out in the
cold.
Who
is correct?
Thanks,
Kris
