ARC DISCOVERY PROJECTS 2009

SUBMISSION DEADLINES
 
ASAP
Please register your application on GAMS, requesting a GAMS ID and Password from  Selcuk Savas  if you have not already done so.
 
Information you enter can be edited at any time until the closing date. Use a working title and description and add or change investigators.  Once you are registered on GAMS, the Grants Management Office will assign you a reader and maintain contact with you throughout the application period.
 
Friday 11 January
Closing date for submission of eligibility rulings requests. Please complete this form if you intend to submit an eligibility rulings request, and send it to arcapplications.gmo@unsw.edu.au
 
Friday 8 February  
Closing date for full review and detailed feedback on applications.
 
Please finalise as much of your application in GAMS and validate it by hitting the 'validate' button (correcting any errors the GAMS system picks up). Then print as .rtf from GAMS, save it to your hard drive, then submit the .rtf with additional sections B10, C2, C3, D2 and E electronically to arcapplications.gmo@unsw.edu.au. There is no need to hit 'local submit' at this stage because GMO will provide feedback and you may need to make changes to your GAMs form. When you have taken into account all feedback provided and you are happy that your application is complete, then hit 'local submit'.
 
If you provide your application to us after 8 February, volumes of applications may prevent us from giving your application the attention it deserves.
 
Compliance Checking of Final Draft
After you have received and considered our feedback, you should then submit your final draft for compliance checking. If you have not provided enough time for GMO to compliance check your application, please self-check using our Compliance Checklist.
 
Monday 3 March The Grants Management Office will not be able to check applications received after this deadline (ie your application will not be compliance-checked and will be sent to the ARC 'as is'). GMO will be preparing over 400 applications for despatch to the ARC during this week - a logistics exercise that prohibits us from checking new applications received.
 
Tuesday 4 March
ALL APPLICANTS ARE TO ENSURE THEIR APPLICATION HAS BEEN LOCALLY SUBMITTED ON GAMS AND MUST PROVIDE ONE ORIGINAL AND TWO PAGE NUMBERED HARD COPIES OF THEIR APPLICATION TO THE GRANTS MANAGEMENT OFFICE BY THIS DATE. 
 
APPLICATIONS WILL RECEIVE A FINAL CHECK TO ENSURE ALL SECTIONS ARE IN ORDER AND WILL BE BOXED FOR DESPATCH TO THE ARC BY 5PM WEDNESDAY 5 MARCH.
