Linkage Projects Eligibility Exemption and Advice

The ARC Funding Rules describe situations in which an Eligibility Exemption/Advice Request form must be submitted to the ARC as part of the funding application process. Situations that may require an exemption or advice request from the ARC usually relate to eligibility of investigators, fellowship candidates, organisations, and/or medical and dental research. There is a form for each scheme which must be submitted via the ARC online application system by the due date specified in the relevant Funding Rules.
