Submit a Proposal

Hints and help for submitting the completed proposal

Who will help me submit a proposal?

UNH, like most universities, is comprised of units with varying amounts of experience and/or resources for activities like proposal preparation.   That variation creates a mix of expectations about how and when an investigator interacts with Sponsored Programs Administration (SPA) staff to submit a proposal.

Get Approvals

The review and approval of a proposal for external sponsorship generally involves consideration of:

  • its merit and appropriateness to the institutional mission

  • financial impact of the proposed activity

  • compliance with institutional policies and sponsor requirements


These approvals are documented using the UNH Internal Approval Form (a.k.a. the Yellow-Sheet).
