You’ve taken on the daunting task of writing a grant proposal—good luck! We know this can be quite an intense experience, and a proposal is probably one of the most complicated pieces of text you’ve ever had to write. After all, it’s rare to receive any training in what a grant proposal looks like or how to write a successful one. Plus, the process for getting a grant is often very competitive, with many others having the same hopes as you. This is probably something very important to you and an opportunity you really care about, so of course you want to do as well as possible and give yourself the best chance at success. How do you do that? You get help from a professional editor. An editor will know all the tips and tricks for writing a good grant proposal, and they’ll be able to make sure your language is correct and that you’ve expressed yourself as clearly as possible. Don’t let grammatical mistakes or an inferior grant proposal be what holds you back—get help with your grant proposal editing from Capstone Editing.

The ability to secure funding is crucial to academic success. In Australia, it is imperative to gain nationally competitive (category one) grants in order to secure academic employment, to conduct research and for career advancement. Grant proposal writing differs from other forms of academic writing, as it requires the presentation of a compelling idea within limited space for an audience of assessors with limited time. An application for a nationally competitive grant needs to be written in such a way that an intelligent and informed (but potentially non-specialist) reader can easily grasp what is being proposed in the research project or scientific investigation and is firmly convinced of its value.
Grant proposal editing guarantees that, in addition to meeting all guidelines and formatting requirements, your application is worded perfectly to ensure you have the highest chance of success. Capstone Editing’s specialist academic editors have worked on countless proposals in all the major funding rounds, including those for Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery and Linkage Programs and National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) Program and Project Grants. The services of a skilled academic editor experienced in grant proposal editing are certain to give your application the best chance of funding success.
A grant proposal is usually the only opportunity you have to apply for a certain grant, and you won’t get any more chances. You need to submit a strong proposal to be in the running for a grant.
