Apply for a Grant
This article is for Applicants who would like to apply for a Grant.
Learn How To:
Find a Grant
After you have registered an account as an Applicant, you can search for Grants available to you via your dashboard. If you are not registered, see Applicant Registration.
Search and apply
In this section you can use the search and sort functions to find grants that interest you. From here you can click Apply for this Grant to start the Application process. To submit your first grant you will be instructed to confirm your account via email.
Here you can see if a Grant is open or closed, how many people have applied for it, and when the Grant closes. If the Grant says “Always open”, it means there is no deadline for your Application submission.
If you cannot see the Grants section, you may need to click Expand Grants. You can pin Grants to the top of your dashboard by hovering over the Grant and clicking the pin. This action will move the grant to the top of the list. You can also Sort Grants, and Collapse Grants.
Start Application
After you find a Grant and click Apply for this Grant, you can start filling out your Application form.
As soon as you press Apply for this Grant, your Application will automatically be saved by the system. Any changes to your Application will automatically save. If you exit the Application form, you can easily return to it via your dashboard or the Application menu. If you do not want to proceed with your Application, you can delete it.
While you are filling out your Application, you have two options:
Highly Recommended Tip: At any stage of the Application process, there is an option to export your Application as a PDF, or download your Application. This is a useful tool, especially if you want to email or print your Application for others to review before you submit it.
Submit Application
Do your best to complete the form as best as possible. If you do not provide sufficient information, the Grant Administrators may need to request more information from you. They may also decline your Application due to lack of information.
If the Submit button is greyed out, it means you have not completed mandatory information. Return to previous screens by clicking Previous.
Mandatory fields are those with an asterisk (*) next to them.
What can I expect after I submit an Application?
Your Grant Application will be reviewed and you will receive a Letter of Offer or Letter of Decline. Before you receive a decision, you may receive a request for more information. See Information Requests.
