Submission of applications to the SNSF: new deadline at 5 p.m. Swiss local time on the final submission date!

From 1 October 2016, the new deadline for all funding schemes of the SNSF will be 5 p.m. Swiss local time on the final submission date. This will allow the SNSF to offer optimised support during the submission process.

Thanks to the new submission deadline at 5 p.m. Swiss local time (instead of midnight as until now), SNSF staff will be able to provide assistance to applicants through the entire submission process. The change of deadline also brings SNSF rules closer into line with those of major research funding organisations around the world.

Please note: project funding will be concerned by the new deadline first. As 1 October is a Saturday, the actual deadline is Monday, 3 October 2016 at 5 p.m. Swiss local time.
