Getting Started with a Proposal
Five-Day Deadline
Please be advised of Research & Economic Development's five business-day deadline for proposal submissions that helps ensure the highest chances for proposal funding and accommodates for unforeseen circumstances like technical issues. Proposals not meeting this deadline may be submitted to the funding agency with limited, or no, review, in which case the PI will be responsible for actions taken by the sponsor for noncompliance. There may also be delays in post-award processes involving award acceptance and account activation and setup. Please see the five-day proposal submission checklist for information on what is involved in the limited five-day review.
NOTE THAT RESEARCH & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IS NOT ABLE TO RECEIVE AND SUBMIT PROPOSALS ON THE SAME DAY. THEREFORE, YOUR FINAL PROPOSAL AND SIGNED PROPOSAL ENDORSEMENT FORM MUST BE RECEIVED AT LEAST 24 HOURS PRIOR TO THE DEADLINE.
