<p>This Notice supersedes&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-23-076.html">NOT-OD-23-076</a>&nbsp;and establishes stipend levels for fiscal year (FY) 2024 Kirschstein-NRSA awards for undergraduate, predoctoral, and postdoctoral trainees and fellows, as shown in the tables below which reflects the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (<a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/2882/text">Public Law 118-047</a>), signed into law on March 23, 2024. NIH is being responsive, as much as possible given the constrained budget environment, to the <a href="https://acd.od.nih.gov/documents/presentations/12152023_Postdoc_Working_Group_Report.pdf">Advisory Committee to the Director Working Group on Re-Envisioning NIH-Supported Postdoctoral Training</a> report recommendations. In fact, FY 2024 stipend levels for predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees and fellows represents the largest year-over-year increase in recent history. We are committed to reaching the $70,000 recommendation over the next 3-4 years, as appropriations allow. &nbsp;The Training Related Expenses and Institutional Allowances for predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees and fellows reflect a moderate increase. The Tuition and Fees for all educational levels remain unchanged from the prior budget year.&nbsp;See&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/policy/nih-funding-strategies.htm">NIH Funding Strategies</span></a> for&nbsp;guidance on current NIH Fiscal Operations.</span></p><p>The budgetary categories described in this Notice apply only to Kirschstein-NRSA awards made with FY 2024 funds. All FY 2024 awards previously issued using&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-23-076.html">NOT-OD-23-076</a> will be revised to adjust funding to the FY 2024 levels. Appointments to institutional training grants that have already been awarded in FY 2024 must be amended to reflect the FY 2024 stipend levels once the training grant award has been adjusted by NIH. Amended appointments must be submitted through xTrain in the eRA Commons. Retroactive adjustments or supplementation of stipends or other budgetary categories with Kirschstein-NRSA funds for an award made prior to October 1, 2023, are not permitted.</p><p><strong>Stipends</strong><br>Effective with all Kirschstein-NRSA awards made on or after October 1, 2023, the following annual stipend levels apply to all individuals receiving support through institutional research training grants or individual fellowships.</p><p>Undergraduates: For institutional training grants supporting undergraduate trainees (T34, TL4), appointments for undergraduate candidates will continue to be made by distinct categories (i.e., Freshmen/Sophomores and Juniors/Seniors), but the stipend levels for the categories will be the same:</p><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" align="left">

<p><br><br>&nbsp;</p><p>Postdoctoral Trainees and Fellows: For institutional training grants (T32, T90, TL1) and individual fellowships (F32), the stipend level for the entire first year of support is determined by the number of full years of relevant postdoctoral experience when the award is issued. Relevant experience may include research experience (including industrial), teaching assistantship, internship, residency, clinical duties, or other time spent in a health-related field beyond that of the qualifying doctoral degree. Once the appropriate stipend level has been determined, the trainee or fellow must be paid at that level for the entire grant year. The stipend for each additional year of Kirschstein-NRSA support is the next level in the stipend structure and does not change mid-year.</p><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">

<p>Senior Fellows (F33 only): The stipend level must be commensurate with the base salary or remuneration that would have been paid by the institution with which the individual is permanently affiliated when the award is issued but cannot exceed the current Kirschstein-NRSA stipend limit set by the NIH for those with 7 or more years of experience. The level of Kirschstein-NRSA support will take into account concurrent salary support provided by the institution and the policy of the sponsoring institution. NIH support does not provide fringe benefits for senior fellows.</p><p><strong>Relevant Policies</strong><br>Current stipend levels are to be used in the preparation of future competing and non-competing NRSA institutional training grant and individual fellowship applications. They will be administratively applied to all applications currently in the review process.</p><p>NRSA support is limited to 5 years for predoctoral trainees (6 years for dual-degree training), and 3 years for postdoctoral fellows. The NIH provides eight levels of postdoctoral stipends to accommodate individuals who complete other forms of health-related training prior to accepting a Kirschstein-NRSA supported position. (The presence of eight discrete levels of experience, however, does not constitute an endorsement of extended periods of postdoctoral research training).</p><p>It should be noted that the maximum amount that NIH will award to support the compensation package for a graduate student research assistant remains at the zero level postdoctoral stipend, as described in&nbsp;<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/nihgps/HTML5/section_2/2.3.7_policies_affecting_applications.htm#Graduate">the NIH Grants Policy Statement 2.3.7.9</a>.</p><p><strong>Tuition and Fees, Training Related Expenses, and Institutional Allowance for Kirschstein-NRSA Recipients</strong></p><p>The NIH will provide funds for Tuition and Fees, Training Related Expenses, and Institutional Allowance as detailed below.</p><p><strong>A. Tuition and Fees</strong></p><p>Undergraduate and Predoctoral Trainees and Fellows: For institutional training grants (T32, T34, T35, T90, TL1, TL4) and individual fellowships (F30, F31), an amount per predoctoral trainee or fellow equal to 60% of the actual tuition level at the applicant institution, up to $16,000 per year, will be provided. If the trainee or fellow is enrolled in a program that supports formally combined, dual-degree training (e.g., MD/PhD, DO/PhD, DDS/PhD, AuD/PhD, DVM/PhD), the amount provided per trainee or fellow will be 60% of the actual tuition level, up to $21,000 per year.</p><p>Postdoctoral Trainees and Fellows: For institutional training grants (T32, T90, TL1) and individual fellowships (F32, F33), an amount per postdoctoral trainee or fellow equal to 60% of the actual tuition level at the applicant institution, up to $4,500 per year, will be provided. If the trainee or fellow is enrolled in a program that supports postdoctoral individuals in formal degree-granting training, an amount per postdoctoral trainee or fellow equal to 60% of the actual tuition level at the applicant institution, up to $16,000 per year, will be provided.</p><p><strong>B.
