Yes, the application deadline is March 1 for all participating NIH Institutes and Centers. Applications are accepted only from mid-November through March 1.

Submission deadlines vary based on the stage, but the time of the deadline is always 12 PM (noon) EST. Please refer to the Contest Calendar for submission deadline dates.

The Grants.gov application may be submitted beginning March 10, 2008, and must be successfully received by Grants.gov no later than 5:00 p.m. local time of the applicants institution/organization on April 10, 2008. Application materials will not be accepted after that time, and applications that are not complete will not be reviewed.

For non-tank vessels, a completed and signed application must be received by this department at least 15 days before the vessel begins operations in Alaska waters. We will accept applications received less than 15 days before start of operations if the following conditions are met: The applicant demonstrates that unanticipated circumstances prevented the applicant from meeting the 15 day deadline.

The job announcement will specify the duration of the filing period. Some may have a definite closing date (two weeks or 14 days, etc.) whereas others may be open until recruitment needs are satisfied (URS). URS recruitments can close at any time without prior notice. When a URS recruitment is set to close, a date will then be posted. In either case, an application must be submitted before 5:00 PM on the closing date to receive consideration.

Please avoid this problem by submitting early. If you choose not to submit until the last minute, you may do so at your own risk. Please contact us as soon as possible. We will make determinations whether or not to accept affected applications on a case-by-case basis. A complete application includes all of the elements and forms listed in the Full Finding Opportunity Notice regardless of what is shown in grants.gov. You can upload forms and documents into grants.

The deadline to be considered for the current semester is usually the same as the deadline for fee payments. This deadline is published in the UF Graduate Catalog and UF Graduate Student Handbook, available in print or online on the website (listed in the menu of the left of this webpage).

No. As of Dec. 1, 2005, when SBIR/STTR applications were required to come in electronically via Grants.gov to NIH, no paper applications are accepted. You MUST submit the SBIR/STTR application electronically to Grants.gov using the SF424 (R&R) Application Package (attached to the specific FOA) and following the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide (MS Word - 24 KB). This includes all new as well as resubmission (formerly called amended/revised) applications.

To be fair to all applicants we cannot extend these deadlines. We have adjusted the deadline time to be 3 PM (EST) which is Noon (Pacific time). Thus, applicants have time to contact proposalCENTRAL’s customer service, which is open until 5 PM (EST), to resolve any technical difficulties.

Absolutely. The general rule is, the sooner, the better. Many schools have rolling admissions (even if they don't announce that on the application forms), which means that they consider and admit candidates as they receive their applications. Even those schools that do not have rolling admissions often give greater attention to applications received before the great rush at deadline time simply because they have more time to do so.
