Grants

The NASA grant gives priority to 1st and 2nd years teams at NASA sponsored regionals. If there are not enough 1st and 2nd year teams that file for a NASA grant for that regional, then priority is given to 3rd year, 4th year, etc teams that file.

If there is a regional that you want to attend and it is a NASA sponsored regional, it never hurts to file for a NASA grant. There were many grants that weren't awarded at some regionals last year.

Ask every student, parent and mentor involved with the team where they work and who they know. We found it is much easier to get sponsorship from a company if you have an IN or some other connection in that company. Almost all of our sponsors have come from students, teachers and parents having and IN at a company.
