The memorandum is a response to a letter from Dr. Garrett of Oral Roberts University requesting clarification on the rejection of their application for Graduate Training in Family Medicine. The memorandum explains the review process of the National Advisory Council and states that the staff of the Health Resources Administration does not review applications for merit. It also mentions that the university was provided with application kits and offered technical assistance in the preparation of their application. The memorandum concludes that there is no reconsideration or appeal available for the application and includes an additional application kit for the next grant cycle.
