Funding your graduate program is stressful for many graduate students, but we have tools to help you succeed! Would you Fund it? gives you the opportunity to have your two-page project summary reviewed by a former Tri-council or Quebec committee reviewer.
This year, consultations will be conducted online via myCourses, or with the option of a one-on-one Zoom consultation, if possible. In order for your registration to be valid, please upload your polished proposal draft to the webform below. SKILLSETS will ensure that your proposal is sent to the appropriate committee reviewer, who will scan the document and provide feedback on structure, relevance, and language accuracy with suggestions on how to strengthen your draft.
WYFI is not a proofreading or editorial consultation. Thus, we would expect your proposal to be completed and reviewed by your supervisor before registering to WYFI.
Submissions are open!
NOTE: Reviewers will use the Research Proposal Checklist as a general guideline to evaluate your 2-page research proposal.
