Does anyone know how the funding is actually handled? Do we just get paid the money, or do we submit receipts for reimbursement for the eligible expenses? On the FAQ page, it just says " "Allowances are provided to successful applicants (via their GRFP institution) as part of the GRFP summer or fall funding increments." My GRFP institute doesn't know what this means :/

Got an email that my GRIP has been approved! Slightly afraid that this is an error based on the issues with GROW, but based on the late March time notification date, I'm optimistic it is real. Good luck everyone!

The false notifications about GROW acceptance is infuriating! Especially since NSF applications can be denied for small things like not having the correct margins or formatting requirements :/ I too appreciate the optimistic viewpoint of roadrunner797. I'm waiting to hear about GRIP....has anyone heard anything?
