Limited Submission Competitions (LSCs)

Limited Submissions are funding opportunities for which an external agency limits the number of proposals an institution may submit. The guidelines for these programs require institutions to screen pre-proposals/nominations to determine which applications are submitted for competition.  

While every effort is made to notify faculty about limited submissions, it is difficult to be certain that our process catches everything. Interested applicants should check InfoReady and/or with Eva Olivares to inquire if a Limited Submission Competition has been announced. All researchers (Investigators, University administrators and staff, research personnel/collaborators, study team) who intend to apply to a grant funding opportunity that is a Limited Submission Competition, must immediately notify eolivares@miami.edu at the Office of the Vice Provost for Research and Scholarship (OVPRS) to initiate the internal competition process. 
  
Please provide your Notice of Intent to apply in advance, as much as three months, before the funder application deadline to coordinate the review of applications. This will ensure that deadlines as established by the Institution and external agencies are met and comply with institutional requirements. 

The InfoReady Review System is an online tool to help coordinate and manage institutional Limited Submissions Competitions and Internal Funding Opportunities. Applications must be submitted via the InfoReady Review System to be considered.
