How do I go about getting a nomination from my University/Institution?

Each university selects its nominees differently. Usually it is through the dean's office or the grants office. In addition, your department chair may be an integral part of the nominating process at your institution. You must secure your university's nomination before submitting an application.

I am not a U.S. or Canadian citizen.  How does my institution "verify my current residency status"?

If you are a permanent resident of the U.S. or Canada, your current residency status must be verified by your nominating institution.  To verify your current residency status, the Institutional Nomination Form must be printed, completed and signed by the nominating institutions grant office, then sent in hard copy form to BWF for receipt by the application deadline.  The Institutional Nomination Form can be found below, or on proposalCENTRAL in the "Download Templates and Instructions" section or in the "Research Plan and Other Attachments" section.
