Individual Registration

An individual is an applicant who submits grant applications on their own behalf, not representing an organization, institution or government. Individual applicants may only apply for grant opportunities published on Grants.gov which indicate Individual eligibity within the Synopsis and Full Announcement.

Individuals wishing to submit a grant application using Grants.gov are required to complete this one time registration process. Neither a Data Universal Number System (DUNS) number nor the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) registration is necessary for Individual Registration.

Take note: if you register as an Individual, you will only be able to apply to grant opportunities which indicate Individual eligibility. An individual cannot submit a grant application to a grant opportunity that has Organization eligibility requirements.
