For the FY08 grant period, interested reviewers should note that OUP has two separate reviews: an onsite review that occurs in Washington, D.C., for our AN/NHIAC, HBCU, HSIAC, and TCUP grants; and an online review for our DDRG/EDSRG grants. Visit OUP Programs http://www.oup.org/programs/programs.asp section for additional information on each grant program. Please note that you must have a Ph.D. in a housing- or community development-related field to qualify as a reviewer for our online DDRG/EDSRG review.
