Proposal Process - Timeline
- If you need a new account to NSF, NASA, NIH, grants.gov, etc. contact Judy McShannon as soon as possible – you will require an account to submit your proposal electronically.
- At least two weeks before your proposal is due – email your proposal draft and RFP to Judy McShannon who will provide a review of your proposal and compliance to the RFP requirements.
- At least a one week before your proposal is due – complete your routing sheet and forward for signatures.
- At least one working day (8:00 a.m.) before your proposal is due – release for review and electronic submission.
While NMT is committed to supporting all PIs in the submission of their proposals, proposals submitted the day they are due will not be reviewed and may not be submitted.
