New Chapter Initiative Grant Deadlines 2025

The RAS Chapter Initiative Grant deadlines have been changed for 2025.

The new timelines will be as follows (Grants are awarded on a competitive basis twice annually):

31 January* – Grant Submission #1 Deadline

15 March – Notification #1 of Approval/Rejection

31 May – Grant Submission # 2 Deadline

15 August – Notification #2 of Approval/Rejection
