Proposed Budget

Please enter concise descriptions of your main program expenses, with dollar amounts for each line item.

Enter dollar amounts as whole numbers only, with no dollar sign (e.g.- "1400", not "$1400.00").

Note that student stipends or wages should reflect $14 per hour of student work. For example, a full-time 10-week summer research assistantship would result in $5600 per student.
