Material change · Eligibility

Arctic Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grants (Arctic DDRIG) Arctic Social Sciences, Arctic System Sciences, and Arctic Observing Network (DDRIG)

  • Assistance Listing (CFDA) number changed from 47.050 to 47.075. 47.050 is NSF's Geosciences listing. 47.075 is the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences listing. Applicants should check that SAM.gov registrations, internal grants-system records, and award or reporting codes use 47.075. This may also suggest the program is now administered under a different NSF directorate or listing, but the text does not say so.
  • Title: The suffix "(DDRIG)" was added at the end. This is a labeling change only, with no effect on scope.
  • Eligibility text: Minor editorial changes. The only differences are HTML and formatting. The <span> tags became &amp;nbsp; and the line spacing changed. Eligibility is unchanged:
    • Only US-accredited IHEs with a US campus may submit.
    • The advisor is PI and the student is Co-PI.
    • The student must be the primary author.
    • The student must be enrolled at a US IHE.
    • The international branch campus justification requirement still applies.

Why it matters: No eligibility, scope, or submission requirements changed. The only action item is the new CFDA number for registration and compliance records.

Minor editorial change to the archive_date field: the value is the same, January 14, 2027 at 05:00 UTC. Only the timestamp format differs (the "T" separator was dropped in favor of a space). The shift is zero days, so applicants have neither more nor less time.

Why it matters: nothing changes for applicants. The date the listing moves to archived status is unchanged, and this edit does not affect the application close date or any other deadline. No action is needed, though applicants should still check the actual response deadline in the solicitation.
