Some federal and private sponsoring agencies limit the number of proposals or applications an institution (or components of the institution) may submit for funding consideration. Therefore, it is necessary for American University to have a limited submission policy to establish an appropriate process for determining which proposal(s) is/are the most competitive with regard to the agency’s call. Sponsors vary on how they impose such a limitation.
