All applications for research funding, including those submitted online and preliminary proposals, should be submitted through the Research Grants Office - together with an Application Cover Sheet ('Gold Form') - at least ten working days prior to the funding agency's closing date. Applications received after the internal due date will be processed administratively, but late applicants may not benefit from the same level of feedback as applicants who submit their applications on time. Please forward the number of copies as stated in the guidelines to applicants PLUS an additional copy attached to the Application Cover Sheet. The coversheet has a special ‘Checklist’ to aid researchers in completing the application.
