Grants Manual – Revised May 2006

Grant Writing Tips

Upon preparing the proposal draft, fill out the Proposal Routing Form (found on the SUNO web page), attach the form to the top of the proposal, and provide a copy of the proposal to each of the individuals listed for signature approval.  After each of the individuals listed on the Routing Form have reviewed the proposal, collect the signatures of each of the individuals on the Routing Form.  *Mr. Whitney Barconey and Dr. William Belisle should sign the Routing Form before Mrs. Gloria Thompson signs the Form.  Bring the completed and signed Routing Form to Dr. William Belisle and he will assist you with forwarding the proposal and the Routing Form to the Chancellor for final approval.  DO NOT SUBMIT A PROPOSAL TO ANY FUNDING AGENCY (including Grants.gov, foundations, eGrants, etc.) WITHOUT THE ABOVE DESCRIBED APPROVALS. 

At the latest, please provide the initial draft of the proposal to Dr. William Belisle or to Mr. Whitney Barconey at least ten (10) working days prior to the due date for the proposal.  We would prefer to receive proposal 30 to 60 days prior to the due date in order that we may assist you with “guaranteeing” the funding of the proposal. 

We are available to assist you with any matter concerning grant or other proposal preparation and submittal.
