Internal Review & Submission

Due to a high volume of applications, we have two application tracks:

1. Additional Services track: Share your application as you prepare it
    Final submission due to us: 9:00 am on the day of your grant deadline 

  • You: Submit your materials for grant editing as you write. Book editing with Tori here (at least 5 days in advance of sending your materials for editing)
  • You: Keep us up-to-date on your progress using your Dropbox or Google Drive folder and our Checklist
  • We: Edit your proposal for readability and clarity (if you book editing with Tori)
  • We: Check your proposal for compliance with Columbia's rules and regulations, and the Sponsor's requirements
  • We: Quickly finalize and submit your proposal on the day of the deadline because we checked your materials as you prepared them
  • Upon request, we can arrange: review by one or more of your peers, external review by grants consultants, editing by grants writers (besides Tori)


2. Compliance-Only track: Share your application when you're ready to submit
    Final submission due to us: 3 days before your grant deadline 

  • You: Send us your full and complete proposal 3 days before the grant deadline
  • We: Check your proposal for compliance with Columbia's rules and regulations, and the Sponsor's requirements
  • We: Need 3 days to check your materials and return them to you for editing because we do not see anything as you prepare it
