Grants Department

Welcome to the Grants Department!

Grants are external resources that come from three main sources: federal agencies, state agencies, or private foundations. They are designed to support the development of new initiatives.

Depending upon the opportunity you decide to pursue, grants can fund:

  • Equipment
  • Personnel
  • Facilities improvements
  • Student support
  • Other needs as identified by the funding agency

At Seminole State College, grants support our institutional mission while improving the lives of our students, our faculty and our community. Grants are not intended to be a long-term funding source for college initiatives, although some grants do allow for continued funding opportunities.

The Grants Department is committed to helping the College by facilitating innovative ideas and helping our faculty and staff to find the resources they need to start new projects.

The Grants Department supports faculty, staff and administrators by:

  • Assisting with the development of projects
  • Identifying grant opportunities
  • Assisting with proposal writing
  • Assisting with proposal submission
  • Offering guidance and support after grants are funded
