Section Advice
  • Avoid overcrowding the timeline with details more suitable for other portions of the proposal. 
  • Be sure your timeline aligns to the grant term to which you are applying (summer or academic year). 
  • Students submitting proposals for projects continuing into the academic year might have similar proposals in their applications, but the timelines should be distinct.
