Question about NASA grant.

[MichelangeloCoz]

Can community teams not affiliated with a school apply for the NASA grant, or does the team have to be affiliated with a school? If the team isn't school sponsored, how would you go about filling out the school related parts of the form?

Yes. My team, a community team, just finished our application. We contacted NASA and they suggested we discuss our sponsoring nonprofit where they ask for school information.

Can you elaborate please? I'm completely lost as to what to do for anything regarding schools.

We listed our nonprofit's president as the school principal, listed the schools our member attend in the "other schools" section and wrote about the nonprofit's role for the school support question.

Oh okay, I understand now. Thank you so much! Best of luck to your team!

Hello everyone,

Can an international team (from Israel) apply for the NASA grant as well?

Thanks

It think the only rule about that says that you need to be in a country where there is a regional... Or maybe that's the rule for Rookie Grant...

Per the NASA grant website, only US teams can apply.


While NASA strongly supports the expansion of FIRST Robotics Competition into an international event, we regret that we cannot offer sponsorships to non-US teams.
