- EXAMPLE:
- PI Name and YOUR NAME. Date. Title. Granting agency. Total award $78,000 Co-PI (role) subcontract $9983.
- PI Name. Date. Title. NPS Gateways Program. $10,000. YOUR LAST NAME, Your Role (Senior Personal, Advisor, etc)
- For APT/AEP - the personal statement is typically written in first person.
