You can download a PDF of the application submission instructions here.
Please refer to the Eligibility Criteria before preparing and uploading your application to the Grants Management Portal
NVE applications will no longer be accepted through email. Instead, applicants will use the online Grants Management System to submit their application materials.
Important Note: Please put together all of your proposal materials before you begin entering information into our Grants Management System. When you enter data into the system, you are (currently) not able to save and exit the system, so you will enter and upload all materials at once and then submit for review. We encourage you to look at the submission requirements and these steps ahead of time so that you know what materials are required. If you have any questions, please email us at elf_at_yale_dot_edu
