Things You Should Know Before Applying for Grants

Registration Requirements
There are several one-time actions you must complete in order to submit an application in response to a grant Announcement (e.g., obtain a Bradstreet Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number, register with the Central Contractor Registration (CCR)).

Applicants who are not registered with CCR and do not have a DUNS number, should allow at least 10 days to complete these requirements.  It is suggested that the process be started as soon as possible.
 
1. Applicants must obtain a DUNS number.  

2. Applicants must register with the CCR. 

3. Applicants must check with the grantor agency for additional requirements of that agency. For more Information please visit http://www07.grants.gov/applicants/apply_for_grants.jsp
