  6. Fill out the form as clearly and completely as possible. Some fields are required (indicated by an *). For the narrative and budget areas, you may choose to fill in the box provided, or upload a separate document. You should do one or the other, but not both.
  7. At the end of the form you have the option to either Save or Submit the proposal.
    - If you "Save (to edit later)" you can go back later to edit the proposal before submission.
    - If you "Submit and Lock" the proposal is considered finished and cannot be edited further.

Please note: your proposal is not submitted until you click the "Save and Lock" button. If you "Save (to edit later)" you must return and "Submit and Lock" the proposal for it to be considered by the committee.

The due date for submissions is pending.  You must "Submit and Lock" your proposal(s) by then.

Once you "Submit and Lock" the proposal you will receive an email confirming your submission. The committee will contact you with the results by mid-April. If you have questions about your proposal, you can contact Sherri Dell (sdell@gettysburg.edu) for assistance.
