How much money is available?
Two different figures govern a programme and they are not interchangeable. The programme pool is what the funder has allocated across every award it will make this cycle. The award ceiling is the most one applicant can be granted.
Source wording: “Award ceiling is $375,000. Eligible institutions must have received no more than $6 million per year of NIH support in 4 of the last 7 fiscal years.”
Who can apply?
Institutions must have received no more than $6 million dollars per year of NIH support (in both direct and F&A/indirect costs) in 4 of the last 7 fiscal years. For multi-school institutions, the $6 million limit is based on total NIH funding received by all schools and colleges within the institution as a whole.

Non-domestic (non-U.S.) components of U.S. Organizations are not eligible to apply. Foreign components as defined in the NIH Grants Policy Statement are allowed.

What comparable notices state
333 recordsStated ceilings on open records in the same industry.
Among open records stored under Health & Human Services, 333 of 928 state an award ceiling. Those that do run:
- 25th percentile$250,000
- Median$500,000
- 75th percentile$1,200,000
A statistical estimate, not a prediction. It describes what a set of notices has published in this catalogue on the day you read it, and says nothing about what this programme will award. Records stating no ceiling are excluded rather than counted as zero, and the programme pool — what a funder has across every applicant — is a different column and is never mixed in.
