There are three types of appropriation requests:
- Earmark: federal funding directed specifically to a UA entity for a specific project;
- Plus up: federal funding add to an agency's budget with the understanding between the UA faculty and staff member and the program manager that the funding will be awarded to UA; and
- Programmatic: requesting a total funding level for a specific federal program.
If you have questions about the federal appropriations process or funding status, please contact John Latini, UA director of federal relations and Denae Benson, UA assistant director of federal relations. Or, visit their for more information.
