The stipend is based on the applicant's research areas and academic classification. This is a very important point. Students should expect that they will be eligible for only a small percentage of the grant opportunities appearing in each of these databases. Therefore, when conducting a search for funding opportunities for students, one may wish to narrow her search to funding opportunities specifically intended to support students. These databases are not designed to provide information relating to traditional forms of financial aid, scholarships or loans for students.
