Understanding the process and how to interpret reviewer comments is important as you continue to refine proposals for submission and re-submission. Different funding agencies employ different review processes; for this reason it is important to review the review criteria for the funding announcement to which you are applying. Below is information for four funding agencies.<\/p>\n<h4>National Science Foundation (NSF)<\/h4>\n<p>Through its merit review process, the National Science Foundation (NSF) ensures that proposals submitted are reviewed in a fair, competitive, transparent, and in-depth manner.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/new.nsf.gov\/funding\/merit-review#nsfs-proposal-review-process-2fb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Review Process<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>National Institute of Health (NIH)<\/h4>\n<p>NIH policy is intended to ensure that grant applications submitted to the NIH are evaluated on the basis of a process that is fair, equitable, timely, and conducted in a manner free of bias. The NIH dual peer review system is mandated by statute in accordance with section 492 of the Public Health Service Act and federal regulations governing \u201cScientific Peer Review of Research Grant Applications and Research and Development Contract Proposals\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.access.gpo.gov\/nara\/cfr\/waisidx_07\/42cfr52h_07.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">42 CFR Part 52h-<\/a>)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/grants.nih.gov\/grants\/peer_review_process.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Process Description<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The NIH Center for Scientific Review also publishes a monthly newsletter, called \u201cPeer Review Notes\u201d, which is very informative.

Annually, the Endowment conducts more than 200 review panels, involving nearly 1,000 outside experts, in its evaluation of approximately 5,700 applications across 40 grant programs. The Endowment recruits panelists from every state, drawing on a wide and diverse pool of scholars and other humanities experts.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.neh.gov\/grants\/application-process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Review Process<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>US Department of Education (DoED)<\/h4>\n<p>Peer review panels are typically comprised of 5-7 individuals who have the required skills, training or expertise to evaluate the content of applications submitted under specific priorities. Using competition-specific evaluation criteria, peer reviewers score and comment upon applications through a web-based scoring system. These panels typically meet for 3 days, to discuss the submitted applications.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.ed.gov\/about\/offices\/list\/ope\/peer-reviewers\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Review Process<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>The Value of Becoming a Reviewer<\/h3>\n<p>Serving as a reviewer provides invaluable insight into how the proposal process operates, and allows you to develop a fine-grained understanding of what separates successful proposals from those not chosen for funding.
