What if an agency limits the number of proposals submitted by an institution?
If you are planning to submit to a funding opportunity with limited submission, contact the Office Sponsored Programs (OSP) via email at osp@elon.edu as soon as possible.
If an agency limits the number of proposals submitted by an institution, it may be necessary to hold an internal competition. In this case, a brief pre-proposal may be required.
