To better manage the flow of grant proposal submissions, and to ensure they are submitted on time and as accurately and completely as possible, we are instituting a new policy for grant proposal submissions…

• At least 3 weeks before grant submission date: Fill out proposal intake form at this link:
  • If collaborative project: at least 6 weeks before grant submission date.
  • If international project: at least 2 months before grant submission date.
• At least 8 days before grant submission date:
  • Submit finalized administrative documents for all proposal pieces, except for the final narrative. Draft mode of the narrative/text is fine as a placeholder.
  • This enables us to meet ORPA’s deadline.
• At least 5 days before grant submission date:
  • Submit finalized technical document of the proposal narrative.
  • This enables us to meet ORPA’s deadline.

Exceptions to this policy should be rare and well justified.
