NSF TCUP Closes 10/14/2026; CDC WTC Health U01 Due 12/08; NIH CTSA Training Forecast
Three federal records, two posted and one forecasted: an NSF tribal colleges program closing 10/14/2026, CDC World Trade Center Health Program research agreements closing 12/08/2026, and an NIH CTSA training grant.
Three federal funding records on Grants.gov come from three agencies [1][2][3]. Two are posted and one is forecasted [1][2][3]. A National Science Foundation (NSF) opportunity is posted and closes on 10/14/2026 [2]. A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) opportunity is posted with a December close date [3]. A National Institutes of Health (NIH) record is listed as forecasted and shows no close date [1].
The records at a glance
- NSF: the Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP), opportunity 21-595 under assistance listing 47.076; posted, open since 06/24/2021, closing 10/14/2026 [2].
- CDC: cooperative research agreements (activity code U01) tied to the World Trade Center Health Program, opportunity RFA-OH-26-001 under assistance listing 93.262; posted, opened 05/08/2026, closing 12/08/2026 [3].
- NIH: a limited-competition institutional research training grant under the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA), linked to the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program; opportunity PAR-28-004 under assistance listing 93.350; forecasted, open date 07/20/2026, no close date [1].
NSF TCUP: the nearest deadline
TCUP has the earliest close date of the three records, 10/14/2026 [2]. The record has been open since 06/24/2021 under number 21-595, which makes it a long-standing listing rather than a new release [2]. Its title names tribal colleges and universities, but the record as given lists no eligible applicant types, award ranges or submission requirements, so those details have to come from the full solicitation [2]. An office considering a submission would need to check the full solicitation's requirements against the 10/14/2026 close date [2].
CDC: World Trade Center Health Program research agreements
RFA-OH-26-001 is issued through the CDC component listed as HHS-CDC-HHSCDCERA [3]. Its title describes the awards as cooperative research agreements and carries the U01 activity code [3]. The record is posted, opened 05/08/2026 and closes 12/08/2026 [3]. The title connects the research to the World Trade Center Health Program, but the record does not describe research priorities, the number of awards or the funding available [3].
NIH: a forecasted CTSA training grant
PAR-28-004 is an institutional research training grant within the Kirschstein NRSA, tied by its title to the CTSA Program [1]. The title also labels it a limited competition, and the record does not state which institutions may apply [1].
Grants.gov lists this record as forecasted, in contrast to the posted status of the other two [1][2][3]. It shows an open date of 07/20/2026 and no close date [1]. Planning against it therefore means watching for a posted version and its full terms [1].
Who should look closer
- Tribal colleges and universities: research and sponsored programs offices weighing a TCUP submission, given the 10/14/2026 close date [2].
- World Trade Center Health Program researchers: investigators and grant offices whose work relates to the program, with the full announcement as the place to confirm terms before the 12/08/2026 close date [3].
- CTSA-linked training programs: training program directors and grant administrators connected to the CTSA Program, keeping in mind that the record does not define who is eligible for the limited competition [1].
What the records leave out
None of the three records states award amounts, number of awards, cost-sharing expectations, eligibility rules or application components [1][2][3]. Each does carry an assistance listing number: 47.076 for TCUP, 93.262 for the CDC opportunity and 93.350 for the NIH forecast [1][2][3]. Statuses and dates here reflect the Grants.gov records as given, and the full announcements remain the authoritative basis for any decision to apply [1][2][3].
Teams tracking posted and forecasted records side by side can use AMDana, a collaborative tasks, research and grants management system whose modules include Grants Intelligence and Tasks [AMDana].
