Getting to Know NSF
The Program Suitability & Proposal Concept Tool (ProSPCT) is for prospective Principal Investigators (PIs) to contact the National Science Foundation (NSF) to determine suitability of a project idea prior to submission of a proposal.
NSF 101 is an informational series for the science and engineering research community that covers a wide range of topics related to grant seeking, including answers to commonly asked questions and how to communicate with NSF.
NSF101 collaborates with program staff across the agency to provide clear, basic instructions to improve accessibility and demystify the NSF experience.

- Important to very via download that Research.gov version of proposal is correct
- Incomplete discussion of previous NSF support is the most common reason that proposals are returned without review
- Statement the "Data Management Plan is not needed" is very often found during review to be not true -- a DMP is needed
