Applicants undertaking a Masters or a PhD must also include a separate statement which provides information on how the project applied for differs from their Masters or PhD work. This is listed as a mandatory enclosure in Section 5 of the application form. WHO CANNOT APPLY? Applicants who have broken the conditions of previous grant awards within the previous 4 years (taken from the date of the letter of offer). PROCESS 1. You may only apply online. We will not accept applications in hard copy, by email or fax. Online applications may be edited, saved and returned up to the closing date (with the exception of the Travel Awards, which is a rolling programme). You MUST submit ALL documents associated with any part of the application at the same time. All documents must be in Word, Excel or pdf format. We cannot accept documents in other formats. The total size of all your uploaded documents and enclosures must not exceed 25 Mb. Please ensure that you leave sufficient time to upload all documents to the system as there can be long delays as the closing deadline approaches and the system will shut down at 4.00 pm on the closing date. If your complete application is not uploaded when the system closes your application will not be accepted. It is your responsibility to ensure that we receive the application form and documents by the closing time and date. The application form includes an Equality Monitoring Form, which enables the Arts Council of Northern Ireland to ensure fair and wide access to this programme. This does not form part of the decision-making process; however to fill this in as you are required the Council is obliged to comply with equality legislation. 2. The Arts Council will acknowledge receipt of application forms within 20 working days of receipt of your application. 3. Applications will be assessed against the criteria listed above by an Arts Development Officer. 4. Decisions on all awards are made by Directors based on recommendations by artform officers.
