Limited Proposal Submission


What is Limited Submission?

Some programs limit the number of submissions from an institution. When this is the case the university must decide which proposals will go forward and an internal competition is held. To facilitate a fair decision-making process, researchers planning to apply to a limited submissions program are asked to submit a letter of intent to the Office of Research and Projects at least 45 calendar days (6 weeks) in advance of the agency deadline.

Procedure

If, after the 45-day deadline, the number of notifications for a program exceeds the program’s limit, the Assistant Dean of Graduate Studies and Research will establish a committee to oversee proposal selection. If the number of notifications received by this deadline does not exceed the program limit, the Office of Research and Projects will handle the letters of intent on a first-come, first-accepted basis.

Below is a short list of programs that have historically necessitated internal coordination at SIUE. Note that there are many programs with institutional submission limits. Please be sure to check program guidelines early for any submission limits. To guarantee that your proposal will be considered for submission to a limited-submissions program, make sure you meet the 45-day deadline notification requirement. The ORP maintains a list of current limited-submission programs for which we have received one or more notifications. Please contact Christa Johnson for more information.

*Please note: Individual departments and colleges may have their own internal policies regarding submissions to limited programs. Please be in touch with  your department chairs and unit deans as early as possible regarding your grant submissions.
