Hello -

Our university is trying to figure a few things out on OTRS match as well.

Yes, federal grants pay OTRS Federal Matching. The reference is below. It shows as a fringe benefit.

Our university does OTRS Grant Match to non-state grants.

I also need advice how you treat match funds received from other OSHRE schools or state funded tech centers? We found that some university match funds are treated as "other" and some are treated as state. We think the two should be the same unless the funds are coming from a foundation. Do the other schools distinguish if other self-generated funds (at the university) from student enrollment fees, vendor sales, or ticket sales be "other" as well?

Hello,
Could you confirm if any institution includes the OTRS federal matching amount as part of the grant-funded employee benefit cost charged to the federal agency? I mean, do you submit invoices for the federal matching amount to the federal agency for reimbursement?

I would appreciate it if you could share.
