What do character limits (ex. 700 chars max) refer to in the online proposal form?
A character is any letter, space or symbol – the average English word consists of 7 characters, including spaces and punctuation. If your answers exceed the given character count, the online application cannot accept your entry. TIP: We encourage you to draft the “Project Details” section in a word processor (Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, etc.) to ensure the correct character count. You can then directly cut and paste the answers into the online application form.
