Mistakes that cost you the money

  • Starting spending before you apply. Consequence: Those costs may not be accepted by the funder.
  • Relying on the maximum grant shown here without checking the call. Consequence: Your budget may not match what the call allows.
  • Leaving the application to the last day. Consequence: The call does not state a closing time, so you may run out of time on the last day.
  • Proposing a project that does not apply the Codes of Practice named in the call. Consequence: The application may be rejected as not meeting the requirements.
  • Not keeping the submission receipt. Consequence: You cannot prove when you applied.
