FAQ: Accessing the Application

Do I need to complete an application in one session?

No, you can start an application and return at a later time to complete the application. When beginning a new application, you are required to establish a log-in and password. At any time during the application process, you may click the "save and finish later" button, exit the application, and return at a later time by clicking the appropriate link on the Program Application page.   Saved applications are accessed through a different link than the one used to begin the initial application. You may access a saved application on the BWF grant application system until it has been submitted.

Please note that all preproposal applications must be submitted by November 19, 2012 at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time.

How do I return to an incomplete application that I saved, but have not yet submitted?

To access a saved application for BWF programs, click the appropriate link on the Program Application page. At the time you begin an application, you are required to create a log-in and password. The same information can be used to access a saved application. Note: There are two separate links to the BWF grant application system (one to start a new application and one to access a saved application.)

Can I receive a copy of my online application form?

You can print a copy of your application as you are completing the online application form by clicking the "Printer Friendly Version" link at the top of the page. You may also click the "Email Draft" link to email a copy of the application. Please note that BWF will not accept emailed applications.
