Limited Submissions
For all active (open) limited submission competitions see the USA InfoReady site.
Some grant and fellowship programs limit the number of proposals that may be submitted by an institution (and/or PI). If you want to apply for a limited submission opportunity that is not listed on the InfoReady site, please contact Kim Littlefield, Ph.D., for guidance about obtaining institutional nomination before developing an application for submission.
NOTE: If you submit a proposal to a limited submission program without institutional nomination and the institutional limit is exceeded, your proposal, and other proposals submitted from USA for that opportunity, will very likely be rejected without review. To prevent miscommunication in relation to limited submission eligibility, the USA Office of RCDL coordinates internal limited submission competitions and institutional nominee selection.
Submission-eligible, institutional nominees for various limited submission opportunities are listed below.
The Office of Research and Economic Development issues a Limited Submission Institutional Nomination Memo to a designated institutional nominee. The nomination memo should be uploaded into the Representations and Certifications section of Cayuse SP and route with proposal documentation to certify institutional approval to submit a limited submission proposal. Proposals routed for a limited submission opportunity without an Institutional Nomination Memo may be returned without submission.

USA faculty who intend to submit an NEH Summer Stipends proposal must notify Dr. Kimberly Littlefield, Assistant Vice President Research Development and Learning via email to kplittlefield@southalabama.edu by May 15 annually. Institutions may nominate up to two (2) faculty applicants. In the event that more than two applicants present notice, an internal competition will be staged to select the institutional nominees. Applicants will be notified via email by the first Monday in June if an internal competition is necessary. In the event that an internal competition is not necessary, the institutional nominees will be announced by the second Friday in July.
The following supporting documentation will be required from an applicant if an internal competition is necessary: 1) a letter of support from the Department Chair, and 2) a one page summary of the project to be conducted. The internal limited submission competition will be managed through the USA InfoReady Review site.
