The submission of a proposal must be reviewed for conformance to:

• Solicitation guidelines
• Research compliance matters (Human Subjects, Conflict of Interest, Intellectual Property)
• Institutional committments (space, faculty or staff effort)
• Adherence to Research Foundation of CUNY, University and college policies
• Allowable or unallowable costs described in the proposed budget (i.e. cost-sharing). 

Given the complexities that may arise during the proposal development process, OGRA has implemented an internal Proposal Submission Policy that is described in further detail, below.
