Student Faculty Collaborative Proposal Reviewer Instructions

1.  Get your proposals to review:
1. Go to the appropriate web site.  Check your reviewer notice e-mail for whether you are reviewing graduate or undergraduate proposals.  Use this link to open the undergraduate site in a new window and this link to open the graduate site in a new window.
2. Log in to the site using your campus e-mail log in.  The log in link is located near the right side of the of the blue bar near the top of the screen.  Click to see image of the blue bar.
3. Once logged in you will see some additional tabs on the blue bar.  Click on the "My Review Forms" tab to get a list of review forms for you to fill out.  You will probably get 3 proposals to review.  All the forms may have the same name as the names indicate which reviewer number you were assigned for each proposal.  Click to see what the view should look like.
4. Click on a review form link to get to the actual review form and its associated proposal.  Click to see what the view should change to.
5. In the blue box on the left labeled "Navigation" is a folder with a list of files associated with the proposal.  To review the proposal you need to download the proposal file and, if it is in a separate file, the mentor support letter (most people included the mentor support letter as the last page of the proposal). To download the file begin by clicking on the title link for the file (.pdf or .doc files).  Click to see what the view should change to.
6. Click on the file name link in the green box to download the file.  We recommend that you save a copy on your local computer so that you can come back to the proposal later.  How you do this will depend on the particular browser and document (.pdf or .doc) reader you are using.
7. Repeat steps c - g until you have downloaded all the proposals you have been asked to review.
8. Log out using the "Log out" link near the right end of the blue bar.
2. Read and review your proposals.  To aid in your review download the review criteria in .pdf form (undergraduate review criteria, graduate review criteria).  The criteria are also included in the online form you must fill out.  You may repeatedly change your online responses until the deadline specified in your reviewer notice e-mail.
