Procedures for Applying to Foundations

 All private sponsor and foundation grants (including letters of intent) must be cleared through University Advancement before moving forward. Clearance is provided on a first-come first-serve basis, therefore it is crucial to let the H&SS RGS know about your intent to apply as soon as possible! 

If another faculty member on campus has already been cleared to apply to the same opportunity, you may have to wait until the next grant cycle. 

To request clearance for a private sponsor or foundation grant, please contact Natalie Gharibian, RGS for H&SS.
