Limited Submission Opportunities

Updated: March 2023

Many federal agencies and foundations offer grants, awards and fellowships that limit the number of applications that can come from one institution. To increase the chances of RUSH succeeding in these "limited submission opportunity" applications, a pre-proposal submission and internal selection process has been established. This procedure applies to all Rush University faculty, staff and students applying for to grant opportunities in which the sponsoring agency limits the number of applications that can come from our institution.

  • Individual instructions are included for each opportunity listed.
  • Archived philanthropic RFPs from the past year can be found here.
