About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document (Amendment No. 000001) for NRC Research Grant opportunity #31310025K0001. The single Q&A addresses what happens if a Principal Investigator (PI) or Co-PI transfers to a different university after grant application submission. The NRC's policy strictly prohibits changing the grant recipient or adding new subrecipients/sub-awardees after application submission.
The document outlines two options available to university awardees in this situation: 1) continue the research by proposing a new PI/Co-PI from within the existing university, or 2) request grant termination if the research cannot proceed without the departing PI/Co-PI. This grant is administered by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission under their Scholarship and Fellowship Program (CFDA 77.008), which provides funding for educational initiatives including undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, and faculty development grants.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
1) Question: After my university submitted its application for an NRC research grant, the PI/Co- PI at the prime university and/or subawardee transferred to another university that was not included on the grant application. If the NRC awards the grant to my university, will the NRC then agree to modify the award so that the PI’s new university can be considered a recipient or subrecipient/sub-awardee?
Answer: No. The NRC does not permit a change of the recipient/grantee. Also, after the applicant submits the grant application, no new subrecipients/sub-awardees are allowed. The university awardee must take one of the following actions:
(1) Determine that it can continue to conduct the grant research and propose a new PI/Co-PI who still works at the university, or
(2) Determine that it cannot continue to conduct the research without the departing PI/Co-PI and ask the NRC to terminate the grant.
