Grant Resubmission Awards Program

The Grant Resubmission Awards Program is a pilot project offering support to faculty for improving on already highly-rated proposals for resubmission.

In recent years, funding for research has become increasingly competitive, with success rates for leading federal research agencies well below 20 percent. This means that many highly-rated proposals are not selected for funding, particularly on the first submission, calling for improvements to compete successfully in a subsequent round.

The Office of Research Grant Resubmission Award program provides support for investigators to improve an already highly-rated proposal for re-submission. This is a pilot project, subject to demand and measured impact of the investments. We encourage individuals with highly rated but unfunded proposals of all sizes and in all disciplines to approach us.
