Your real odds
Most applicants do not receive NSF funding, and the $7.5M ceiling signals they are looking for substantial, well-developed projects rather than early-stage ideas.
NSF programs fund a small percentage of applicants, and the scale of this grant means reviewers will expect a fully formed proposal, not a concept.
What it takes

Submit application before deadline1 to 2 days
Worth knowing
