Limited Submissions

In Limited Submission Programs, the sponsor restricts the number of applications or proposals a campus can submit to the agency. The guidelines for these programs require institutions to screen pre-proposals or nominations to determine which applications will be submitted for competition. Generally, institutions are allowed to submit one or two proposals or nominations to the sponsor. Prior to preparing a proposal, a faculty member should always review the instructions from the agency for any limitations on proposals from an institution. Although the Office of Research will attempt to notify faculty about limited submissions, it is the ultimate responsibility of the faculty member to check with the Office of Research in such cases.
