Limited Submissions

Limited submission programs are those for which funding agencies restrict the number of nominations or proposals a university may submit for consideration for an award. The University of Texas at San Antonio must therefore internally screen all eligible and interested nominees to determine which will represent the university in any of these regional, national and/or international competitions. To learn more about the Limited Submission process, click here.

Below is a list of limited submission programs in which UTSA currently competes or has an interest in competing. Included are deadlines for internal OSP review, final deadlines of the awarding agency, and other pertinent information. Click on the program name in each row to go to a summary of the program.

Please note: This list is not exclusive nor exhaustive, since new programs are developed and existing programs change. Anyone who wishes to apply to a limited submission RFP that is not posted on our website should contact OSP immediately. OSP will review the guidelines, establish an appropriate internal review date, and post the RFP to the website.

Every effort will be made to maintain current and accurate information within this list; however, the awarding agency’s posted information remains the final authority.

Pre-Proposal Documentation

Documents required by OSP are listed for each internal competition within the program summary. In all cases, requirements for internal review will mirror the requirements of the awarding body to reduce duplication or extraneous paperwork.

Please note that the Office of Sponsored Programs will only accept pre-proposals forwarded by the Associate Deans for Research at the Colleges (or similar figure in Divisions) for internal OSP review. All required documentation should be submitted to OSP by the posted deadline.

It is the responsibility of the researcher and nominating body to ensure that all eligibility guidelines are met prior to submission for internal review.
