Proposal Routing Form Tips
|
Dynamic PDF forms require the use of Adobe Acrobat Reader. Before working with a PDF form, please make sure your computer has a recent version of Adobe Reader installed. (The latest version of the software is called
Adobe Reader DC. To download and install Acrobat Reader DC for free, visit the
Adobe Acrobat Reader DC webpage.)
The Provost's office has complete detailed instructions and troubleshooting for
downloading, completing, and signing Dynamic PDF forms, including what to do if you encounter the
Please Wait...message screen. If you are unable to resolve your problem with completing or digitally signing your dynamic PDF form, complete the form "Request for Assistance with Dynamic PDF Forms" located in the troubleshooting section under Other Issue.

New Effective Date for the Revised NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide
Due to the recent lapse in appropriations, implementation of the revised NSF
Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide
(PAPPG), (NSF 19-1) was postponed. We are pleased to announce that the revised PAPPG will now be effective for
proposals submitted, or due, on or after February 25, 2019
. Significant changes include:
- Addition of Research.gov as an option for proposal preparation and submission, and proposal file updates;
- Revision of eligibility standards for unaffiliated individuals;
- Specification that conference proposals over $50,000 and all equipment proposals must include the Collaborators and Other Affiliations information in the proposal submission;
- Revision of resubmission guidelines for NSF programs that accept proposals at any time;
- Implementation of NSF’s policy on sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, or sexual assault;
- Specification that proposers are required to have a policy or code-of-conduct that addresses sexual harassment, other forms of harassment, and sexual assault, and that includes clear and accessible means of reporting violations of the policy or code-of-conduct. This policy or code-of-conduct must be disseminated to conference participants prior to attendance at the conference as well as made available at the conference itself;
- Emphasis on the importance of training faculty in the responsible and ethical conduct of research;
- Incorporation of existing patent policy into the PAPPG. This policy was previously implemented by regulation at 45 CFR 650; and
- Numerous clarifications and other changes throughout the document;
You are encouraged to review the by-chapter summary of changes provided in the Introduction section of the PAPPG.
While this version of the PAPPG becomes effective on February 25, 2019, in the interim, the guidelines contained in the current PAPPG (NSF 18-1) continue to apply. We will ensure that the current version of the PAPPG remains on the NSF website, with a notation to proposers that specifies when the new PAPPG (including a link to the new Guide) will become effective.
If you have any questions regarding these changes, please contact the DIAS/Policy Office at
