Proposal Submission Form

Consider the timeline outlined below as the minimum amount of time needed.


4 Weeks PRIOR:

Submit Notice of Intent - Proposal Information Form (available to the right)


2 Weeks PRIOR:

FINAL Non-Technical Components, for all Key Personnel

  • Budget and Budget Justification
  • Biographical Sketch
  • Project Title
  • Current and Pending Support
  • Sub-award Documents, if applicable


By 12:00 pm the Day PRIOR to sponsor deadline:

FINAL Technical Components

  • Project Summary
  • Project Description
  • References Cited
  • Data Management Plan, if applicable
  • Post Doc Mentoring Plan, if applicable


Internal Approval Form (IAF):

Approvals secured prior to proposal submission


Proposals that involve subcontracts, cost-share, course-buyout, and course-release require additional time to secure approvals. Any proposal to a foreign agency requires an export review completed prior to submission.


The timely submission of proposals for review allows for identification of any elements of a proposal that are at variance with Sponsor and/or University policy. Principal Investigators are responsible for engaging research administrators as early in the process as possible with the understanding that proposals require collaboration for the development of project budgets and administrative elements of the proposal.


During major deadline periods, additional processing time will be required. Our office may find it necessary to adjust the timeline to meet deadlines. If a PI is unable to meet the submission guidelines, every effort will be made to submit the proposal by the sponsor-stated deadline. The PI will accept the risk of non-compliance for proposals processed outside the submission guidelines.
