Applicants for Type A grants must demonstrate plans to apply for an external grant worth a total of at least $20,000 within one year of the end of the Type A grant. Applicants for Type B grants must demonstrate plans to apply for an external grant worth at least $50,000 per year within one year of the end of the Type B grant.
