Good News: The Limit on the Number of NSF MRI Grant Proposals You Can Submit No Longer Exists

Here’s something you haven’t heard in a long time: We have some good news to share about the way grants are funded in this country.

A new solicitation from the National Science Foundation has made a significant change to the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) program. The MRI is no longer a Limited Submission Opportunity (LSO), which means universities are no longer restricted in the number of MRI proposals they can submit.

In the past, most institutions were required to implement some sort of internal competition to determine which projects would be submitted to the NSF for grant funding consideration.
