Please be aware that the number of applicants to CSC grants has increased greatly in the last years, at a much faster pace than the number of grants. The competion therfeore gets stronger, with an overal ~50% sucess rate for applicants in 2012. CSC pointed out to us that the following items are key elements of the application's evaluation:

We strongly advise you to take this into consideration when writing your application, and insist on the added value provided by the FCPPL framework on these issues. FCPPL is open to provide you with any suport/help in writting your application.
 
  • Important notice for candidates : There is still plenty of time before the application deadline, but we would like to draw the attention of potential candidates on the fact that your academic institution of origin may also be part of the candidates selection process. Its exact role differs from one institution to the other, and it is therefore hard for FCPPL to provide you with details on this specific issue, but we strongly advise potential candidates to QUICKLY get in touch with their academic administration,inform them that you wish to apply to a CSC grant in 2013, and ask what should be done to get the institution approval for this.
