Sign up for Limited Submissions Notifications Through UW Office of Research
The UW’s Office of Research manages all limited submission opportunities, including notifying the research community about them and evaluating which submissions move forward from UW to the funder. If you’d like to be alerted to those opportunities sign up for their listserv or visit their web page: http://depts.washington.edu/research/funding/limited-submissions
Many federal agencies and foundations offer grants, awards, and fellowships that limit the number of applications that can come from one institution. To increase the chances of the UW succeeding in such limited submission opportunity applications, the Office of Research has established a procedure to review pre-proposals in a timely fashion.
