Indirect Cost Requests

Staff and faculty in BNHS may request use of indirects at any time, with priority given to PIs who have generated indirects.  Requests involving the SON labs should first be directed to Office of Nursing Research for funding.  If ONR cannot fund the request, it can then be submitted to BNHS for consideration. 

To request funds, send an email to the administrator including the following information:

  • Detailed description of material, travel or services requested, including cost and duration. For equipment, also include a quote, source, sole source justification if applicable, contact info and any time contraints on pricing. If salaries requested, also include info about person(s) to be paid.
  • Justification of why this will benefit BNHS, including others besides the requestor who will benefit.
  • For lab requests, attach communication from ONR confirming that ONR will not fund the request.
  • Urgency of request or timeframe the funds are needed.

Review of requests will be by the administrator, chair or BNHS Executive Committee, depending on type and size of request.  Requests may be approved, sent back for more justification, delayed till funds are available, or disapproved.
