To apply for funds, a student must submit a formal proposal that includes a cover sheet, budget request and other supporting documents. Please read the funding guidelines and then follow the instructions below.

1. Click on the link to the Funding Proposal Document and download the Word document file. Save the file first and then complete the form.
2. Click on the link to the Budget Form and download the Excel document file. Again, save the file first and then complete the form.
3. Complete all parts of the two files (See detailed Instructions below)
4. Send a single copy of all completed forms to Dr. Maury Harris via inter-office mail Box 72. Electronic submissions are also encouraged. The email address for submissions is wharris@stthom.edu.
5. The student researcher, faculty mentor, and the department chair will all receive an acknowledgement of submission. If you do not receive this email within a week after submission, please contact Dr. Harris via email at wharris@stthom.edu.
6. The student will be informed of the result of your proposal review via e-mail as soon as the committee has made a decision. A copy will also be sent to the faculty mentor and the department chair.
