- Once you have visited and filled in all the information in each of the 7 sections. Hit the validation button at the bottom of the page. This will check to make sure you have visited each page and take you back through the entire form to correct any errors.
- Once you have validated and corrected any errors or omissions as a FINAL step you must submit your proposal for review. Change the state of the proposal from: private to submit for committee review. This will notify the committee that you have filled in the entire application, checked it over, uploaded all three documents (proposal, budget, C.V>) and it is ready for the committee to review. You must change the document from private to submit before the final deadline or it will not be considered.
