Who funds the NRC?

2. Does the NRC get all of its funding from the fees that it charges? No, we receive all of our funding from Congress. As required by law, we then collect approximately 90\% of our budget from the fees that we charge over the course of the year, and that money is given back to the U.S. Treasury.

What is the NRC government grant?

NRC only awards grants directly to accredited U.S. institutions of higher education and does not award individual scholarships or fellowships. Consequently, NRC requires scholarship and fellowship recipients to serve 6 months in nuclear-related employment for each full or partial year of academic support.
