Is the CNCS eGrants system like the Department of Education (DOE)?
There are some differences. The Federal government is moving toward serving the public online and the eGrants system is part of this move. CNCS, the National Science Foundation, and the Department of Education are three Federal agencies offering an eGrants application system to the public. • What is the character limit for a LSA application narrative? Learn and Serve America applicants may submit a maximum of 41,000 characters (including spaces) for the proposal narrative. However, separate character limits are given for different sections of the application. Please adhere to the listed character limits in the application instructions. • Can you periodically save what you enter in the eGrants system and return at another time to add information or complete the application? Yes. eGrants allows applicants to save periodically. We suggest that applicants type information in a word processing document and when complete and accurate, paste this information into the application. See eGrants
