Limited Submission

Limited submission programs restrict the number of proposals, applications or nominations an institution can submit to a funding agency.

These programs require institutions to conduct an internal solicitation and review process in which deans and directors of organized research units (ORU) nominate pre-proposals for internal review. A review committee chooses the proposal(s) that will go to the funding agency.

This process is managed by the Office of Research Development (ORD). For more information regarding limited submissions, please visit ORD’s website or email them directly (rds@ucmerced.edu).
