Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find Common Grant Application forms?

Common grant application formats have been adopted by groups of grantmakers to allow grant applicants to produce a single, standardized proposal for those in a specific community of funders (usually broken down along geographic lines), thereby contributing to efficiency.

The Center's Web site has links to more than a dozen common grant application forms in use in various regions of the U.S. While not all foundations accept common grant application forms, most common application forms include lists of grantmakers that do accept the common application format.
