Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) Status and Related Grants
We are excited to share that the University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus has recently regained its status as a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI). With fewer than 600 institutions nationwide holding this designation, we are honored to be recognized by the Department of Education.
As an HSI, CU Anschutz, alongside CU Denver, may now qualify for specific federal grants intended for minority-serving institutions (MSIs). However, eligibility for MSI-specific grants can be complex and vary based on the funder's criteria and the data used to assess eligibility.
To ensure that your research team is aware of all relevant details before applying for any HSI or MSI-related grants, please contact Terry Hughes. Terry is available to assist in determining our campus’s eligibility and addressing any factors that might affect grant opportunities.
POST AWARD

The updated PET Calculator is now on the Finance website. The calculator now reflects the fringe benefit rates effective for FY25. The memo regarding FY25 fringe rates can be found here.
