The Review and Selection Process
For each limited submission opportunity, the Office of Research (OR) notifies, by e-mail listserv, Deans, Directors, Chairs and faculty of the opportunity details, deadlines and general directions and deadlines for internal submission of pre-proposals. Subscription to this listserv is open to all. To subscribe or unsubscribe, please email limitedsubs@uw.edu.
After the OR internal deadline, pre-proposals that have been received are sent to members of the OR Limited Submissions Opportunity Review Committee.
In their efforts to choose pre-proposals that are most likely to be funded and have high impact, the Committee reviews each pre-proposal based on these criteria:
- Meets all eligibility requirements specified by the funding organization RFA
- Is scientifically and technically strong
- Promotes the greater University research mission
Many pre-proposals require a letter of support from the PI's nominator, Dean or Chair. This letter should address the above criteria, recognizing that the internal UW selection process is often highly competitive. Given the importance of the nominator's letter, we encourage nominators to consult resources on how to write strong letters, such as: http://www.hhmi.org/sites/default/files/Educational%20Materials/Lab%20Management/letter.pdf.
Some schools and colleges require that materials be routed through their office in advance of the UW deadline. Please check with your school or college administration to confirm.
Once the decision has been made on which pre-proposal(s) will go forward, all applicants are notified of the Committee's decision. Occasionally, the Committee may provide feedback and recommendations to successful candidates so that that the quality of the full proposal can be enhanced.
OR provides a limited submissions approval letter that must be attached to the applicant's eGC1 for the application to be considered by OSP.
