*The submission deadline for Peer Review is typically 30 working days prior to the Faculty Review deadline, though it may be longer if requested by the Faculty. **ORS does not provide technical reviews of SSHRC IG, NSERC DG, and CIHR PG applications (other than ensuring the ORS checklist is properly signed), so please note the Faculty review deadlines as they are important for reviewing applications for York commitments and for facilitating Faculty signatures on the ORS checklists. ORS does provide technical reviews of SSHRC PDG applications so please note both ORS deadlines for this grant.
