Who to Contact About Your NSF Award Skip to content body Manage Your Award This page outlines who you should contact if you have administrative questions about your award from the U.S. National Science Foundation. Refer to your award notice for the managing grants official and program officer if you have an NSF grant, fellowship or cooperative agreement. Always include your award number in any email or communications to assist us with responding to your inquiry. (Note that NSF grant staff are assigned to specific programs as denoted by the "Managing Division Abbreviation" in your award notice.) Questions about a proposal you submitted to NSF? Contact the cognizant program officer listed on the program solicitation or announcement You can also find the program officer currently assigned to a specific proposal on that proposal's "Proposal Detail" page on Research.gov. Visit Research.gov for a tutorial While the managing grants officials listed on this page can assist you with most award-related questions, some questions should be addressed to others, as described below: For guidance on annual reporting or programmatic changes to your award, visit the Manage Your Award section of the NSF website for additional information or contact the managing program officer listed on your award notice.
