What are unallowable costs?
Neither grant funds nor the institutional matching funds may be used to pay for general operational overhead costs of the academic department. General operational overhead costs are defined as means of non-instructional expenses incurred by an academic department in the normal administration and conduct of its academic program, including the costs of supervision, recruitment, capital outlay, debt service, indirect costs, or any other costs not included in the determination of tuition and non-refundable fee charges.
