The office of Foundation and Corporate Relations seeks grants from local and national foundations, corporations and private agencies in support of the needs of the University and its faculty. Foundation and Corporate Relations forms part of the Wesleyan University Relations department.

A Grant Checklist must be received two weeks in advance of the due date and a proposal four days in advance of the due date to allow for a thorough review by the offices of FCR, Grants Accounting, Academic Affairs and Associate Vice President for Finance. We cannot guarantee review and permission to submit if these time frames are not adhered to. Additionally, this helps us to avoid possible conflicts with other Wesleyan initiatives, allows us time to obtain advice about specific guidelines, notify existing contacts we may have with an organization and allow for early planning if there is a need for cost share.

OF NOTE

IMPORTANT NOTICE

NIH plans to implement a number of changes beginning with submission dates on or after January 25, 2010. Among the changes we can expect are reduced page limits and re-format of the biosketch.
