McNair Program, allowable costs Dawn Underwood 01 Oct 2002 11:40 EST

I have been assisting with the budget preparation for a McNair
submission to the US Dept of Ed.   Our board of trustees has approved
an undergraduate tuition waiver for participants of this program.

The guidelines state that payment of academic year tuition may not be
charged against the grant.

The question is, if this cost is unallowable on the sponsor request,
is it also unallowable as a cost share from the university?  This is a
sizable chunk of money, and the PI is interested in showing it as cost
share in the proposal.

Your responses are greatly appreciated!
