Crucial Steps for Submitting Your Grant Application

Step1: Before you begin to write a grant application, you must submit a Proposal Routing Form (PRF) to ORSP. The PRF contains three important elements for proposal approval:

Signature from the appropriate Dean;
statement of work; and
budget with a justification.

Step 2: Before you submit proposal to ORSP. All proposals are required to be reviewed and approved by the unit head and dean.

Step 3: What and When to submit ORSP. A complete copy of the proposal and required application documents must be submitted to the ORSP at least 5 business days before the proposal is due. The ORSP operates with a limited staff and needs time to schedule an electronic submission (if needed) as well as, review and approve the complete application
