The CORE Grants program is paperless. All letters of intent (LOI) and applications are submitted through ProposalCentral, our electronic submission site.
If you are a new user of ProposalCentral, follow the “Register” link and complete the registration process. After you register, complete your Professional Profile (green tab second from left) before starting the application process.
Applicants who are not eligible for an award and/or do not follow instructions for preparing an application, may be administratively withdrawn.
Letters of Intent

d. Whether the project is a resubmission (If yes, note date of previous submission)
