Limited Submissions
Understanding Limited Submissions
Some funding agencies restrict the number of proposals an institution may submit to a particular program. These opportunities are referred to as limited submissions. If a university submits more than the allowable number of proposals to a limited submission opportunity, all its proposals will likely be disqualified. Therefore, it is imperative to follow the internal application/peer review process and secure proper university authorization (and, in certain cases, your campus, school, or department as well).
InfoReady
UMD uses InfoReady, a web-based program, for UMD faculty and staff to browse and apply for open limited submission funding opportunities, seed grant programs, and faculty incentive programs. Reviews are coordinated through this system and notifications are sent to applicants regarding the status of their applications.
Please watch this 4-minute introductory video for applicants new to the InfoReady platform: New Applicant Overview
