NIH/NSF Style Applications
Federal grants typically require: cover page, project summary, specific aims, research strategy, budget, biographical sketches, and letters of support — in that exact order.
Foundation Grants
Private foundations may have simpler requirements. Merge your narrative proposal, budget, organizational information, and board list into one clean document.
After Merging
If your merged PDF is too large, compress it. Need to extract pages later? Use the Split PDF tool.
