Limited Submission Funding Opportunity Program
Limited Submission Funding Opportunity (LSFO) announcements are distributed to faculty via the Office of Strategic Research Initiatives (OSRI). The announcements provide a brief description of the opportunity, a link to the funding agency’s website and both internal and external deadlines.
OSRI will make every effort to identify all potential LSFOs and notify relevant faculty members. If a faculty member or research administrator identifies an LSFO which is not listed in the Open Opportunities, please contact OSRI.
Letters of Intent:
A faculty member interested in applying for a LSFO is required by OSRI to submit an internal letter of intent (LOI) form: Download LOI Form
A separate LOI form is available for the NSF Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) program: Download NSF MRI LOI Form
