How do applicants obtain a negotiated, unrestricted indirect cost rate?
Generally, negotiated indirect cost rates for LEAs are calculated by State Education Agencies. However, in some cases, they may be negotiated with a Federal government agency. If an applicant has not negotiated this rate in the past, please contact Katrina McDonald with the Department of Education’s Indirect Cost Group at 202-377-3838 or Katrina.Mcdonald@ed.gov.
