NCATS will accept up to two applications under the diversity supplement and two applications under the re-entry research supplement for review consideration during a fiscal year from any one CTSA Program hub award.
The NCATS CTSA Program has one receipt date per fiscal year for diversity and re-entry supplements: November 1 (or the following business day if November 1 falls on a holiday or weekend). Applications will be evaluated and decisions will be made within two to three months of receipt, but funding decisions can be influenced and delayed by other factors, including the availability of funds. Therefore, potential applicants are advised to consult first with the NCATS program official (PO) assigned to the linked grant and with the relevant NCATS scientific contact prior to submission of a request for a supplement application.
