NSF Facilitating Research at Primarily Undergraduate Universities
R01 supplements for URM students are available:
If you are an URM student and your mentor has an active R01, they could apply for a diversity supplement to cover your stipend, tuition, and up to 4K in institutional allowance. I also have a diversity supplement application to share. DM if interested.
