Limited Submission Awards & Grants

Foundations and Federal Agencies occasionally limit the number of applications/nominations an institution may submit for a specific funding program. When a call for proposals is "limited" the Office of Research Affairs (ORA) sends out a call for interest to the University Community. If more than the "limit" express interest, ORA uses an internal selection process to determine which application(s) will be submitted to the sponsor for funding consideration.

Below please find a list of Limited Submission Opportunities. If you are interested in one of these  programs, you must email Melinda LeLacheur by the internal deadline stated.

ORA makes every attempt to identify Limited Submissions Opportunities and provide information on them to the University Community in a timely manner.  If you have identified a Limited Submission Opportunity that is not posted on the list below please email Melinda LeLacheur as soon as possible.

Further information on limited institutional submissions can be found in the Guidelines for Limited Institutional Submissions to Funding Programs.
