Proposal Submission
Prior to submitting your proposal you must have completed the following checklist:
- Inform your department Chairperson and Dean at least three months prior to submission of your intentions to seek external funding using the Early Notification Form.
- Be a registered user on the given electronic submission system. The SRO can assist you.
- Provide a "near" final draft of the proposal and budget to the Chairperson, Dean and SRO Director at least two weeks prior to deadline using the "Yellow" Route Sheet.
- Contact the Sponsored Research Office (X7316) to determine the submission date/time.
- Check, double check and check again for any errors using the guidelines!
Government Submissions
All government agencies are using Grants.gov, including NSF, as their clearinghouse for grant announcements and submissions. You can find funding sources, download program applications/guidelines and submit proposals using this site. You do not need to become a registered user to use Grants.gov because Hope College is registered as an institution. All proposal submissions must be handled by the SRO Director. If you would like to learn how to use the site, contact the SRO Director, Tracey Nally.
Foundation Submissions
Prior to any proposal submissions to foundations, the primary investigator (PI) must receive permission from the SRO. If permitted, please follow their guidelines. Each foundation has different submission requirements. More foundations are requiring electronic submissions but many still require a hard copy.
