Before You Apply

Applicants should review the requirements of the specific grant that they are applying to.

Proposals should be clearly written, avoid jargon or overly technical language, and use the budget template provided. The most successful applications are both detailed and feasible. Following these guidelines gives applications the best chances of success, as reviewers are reading many proposals at once.

Undergraduate proposals and graduate proposals have different expectations and requirements. See the undergraduate or graduate 'Before You Apply' pages for more details.

Before applying, verify that you are eligible for the grant you are considering and review theĀ post-award requirements.

Feedback on submitted grant applications may be available upon request after award decisions are made.
