San Francisco
State University has a multi-year Facilities and Administrative
(indirect cost) rate agreement with the federal government.
This agreement specifies the F&A cost rates to be
applied to awards from federal and non-federal sponsors.
The agreement is dated November 3, 2005, and is effective
through June 30, 2010.
The rates
specified in the agreement are as follows:
The rate
for on-campus research is 50.0 percent through 6/30/06
(will increase to 53.0% on 7/1/06); for on-campus instruction,
43.0 percent through 6/30/06 (will increase to 53.6%
on 7/1/06); for other on-campus sponsored activities,
28.0 percent through 6/30/06 (will increase to 28.6%
on 7/1/06).
The rate
for off-campus research, instruction, or other sponsored
activities is 26.0 percent.
Exceptions
to these rates occur when a funding agency places a
cap on the F&A rate. In this case, ORSP must have
written guidelines from the funding agency stating that
there is a limit on F&A costs.
If you would like to discuss any
variance from the above rates, you must speak directly
with Ken Paap, Associate Vice President of Research
(kenp@sfsu.edu or
415-338-7091).
