Research Development
Limited Submissions
Sometimes, a sponsoring agency limits the number of proposals for which an institution can submit, requiring the institution to decide which applications will be submitted for competition. Therefore, it is critical that you are aware of whether a particular program of interest has such limits. If you wish to submit a proposal to a program with submission limitations, please alert your chair, dean and the Office of Research (ext 3148; upongphu@odu.edu) as soon as possible. The dean typically assesses potential conflicts and related decision-making within a college; however, the Office of Research appraises submissions when researchers from two or more colleges express interest in the same program.
Below is a listing of some of the National Science Foundation (NSF) programs that have organizational limited submissions' stipulations. Section 1 is a list of the proposals' deadlines, the links of which link to Section 2. Section 2 provides brief summaries of NSF's limited submission programs and also the links to their respective RFPs. The links to NSF RFPs are as up-to-date as possible. Eligibility and deadline text are verbatim from the NSF website.
