What happens to my funding application (when applying for funding through the Applicant Portal)?

If you applied for funding, you may be wondering what happens once the funding deadlines have passed and you have successfully submitted your application with references also submitted. Here's a quick overview:

1. First, your complete application is considered by the department for admission.*
2. Then, the department assesses your application for funding.
3. Your application is then considered by the funding bodies for all funding opportunities you have applied for and the ones you are eligible for.

*Applications that are missing one or both references are considered incomplete. It is at the department’s discretion whether they will still consider incomplete applications for funding opportunities. You will be able to find more information on submitting your references on our references webpage and in this video.
