External Funding

We are here to support faculty and staff throughout the grant cycle, from identifying funding opportunities to application submission. The steps below outline the process for pursuing external funding.

Watch our Grant Writing 101 Webinar to learn how we can support you!

Application Process

 

Step 1: Request Pre-Award Support

We are here to help right from the start! Complete the ORSI Support Request form to schedule a consultation with our pre-award team.  We will discuss your idea or project, explore potential funding opportunities, and identify the grant-writing support you need.

Even if your idea isn’t fully developed, we still want to hear about it! We can keep it in mind as we monitor funding opportunities.

Step 2: Develop your proposal 

ORSI will work with you to develop your project, identify an appropriate sponsor, create a budget and prepare your application.

Step 3: Complete the Grant Authorization Form 

Once your project is developed, complete the Grant Authorization Form at least 10 days before the grant deadline. ORSI will send the form through Adobe Sign for the required signatures.

Step 4: Submit your application 

Once your application is approved (we always think optimistically!), the post-award team will work with the Controller’s Office and other campus departments to establish the grant’s financial accounts and processes.
