Is NSF willing to be flexible with regard to meeting solicitation deadlines for institutions affected by the Hurricane?
Affected institutions can be assured that they have our support. Researchers or sponsored projects office staff from institutions that have been affected by the hurricane that are unable to meet stated deadlines should contact the cognizant program office to discuss the issue. NSF will consider extensions to the submission deadline on a case-by-case basis. Back to the Top My institution is closed as a result of the hurricane? How can I submit a proposal to NSF? Can another institution submit it for me and then transfer it back to my home institution when we are up and running? A researcher’s sponsoring institution (current or new host) must submit the proposal in FastLane. Researchers are strongly encouraged to prepare the proposal in FastLane so that it is ready for submission by the sponsored projects office. If a displaced researcher is unsure of whether their home institution’s sponsored projects office is up and running, he/she may contact the Katrina Hotline at (800) 381-1532, or
