8. Grant proposals should be only one page long and include the goal, a description of the activity, and itemized budget (including funds for the activity from other sources, if any), the manner in which the activity will be enhanced by the grant, and the proposed benefits to the students.
9. Unused or surplus portions of the awarded grant money must be returned for reallocation to future projects.
