The Office of Research Administration's mission is to provide the expertise needed to assure that grants conform to Federal guidelines, VCOM regulations, and sponsoring agency rules. To this end, the ORA has developed a manual as well as instructional resources to assist research faculty in the grant process from start to finish.

The Grants.gov User Guide (below) is a comprehensive guide to reference information about Grants.gov.  This guide is modified for VCOM from the comprehensive guide.  The comprehensive guide is available on the Grants.gov Customer Support page.  The VCOM Grant Manual (below) can be downloaded below in either adobe or word formats. Additional presentations and information can also be found through the links on the left.
