MJC is dedicated to building a culture of innovation through external funding. MJC’s
grant writer supports the development of grant-funded project proposals, aligns grant
opportunities with college priorities, and provides proposal-writing support to MJC
project developers.
Submit a GO Proposal Application Pre-Approval Package in Etrieve with information about the funding opportunity and a synopsis of your
proposed project. Please include an attachment of the RFP if possible.
All grant concepts require Executive Cabinet approval (via the Etrieve Pre-Approval
form) prior to receiving writing support. Individuals are not able to apply for grants on behalf of the College.
Upon submission of the Pre-Approval form, MJC’s Grant Writer will contact you to set
up a preliminary meeting and begin the application process. · Contact Timea Ewing with any questions.
Grant Approval Journey
Follow the steps below to ensure your grant will get the approval and support necessary

Plan ahead.
Faculty and staff should discuss prospective projects with their Dean and/or direct
supervisor and identify a Project Director and Subject Matter Expert.
When ready to move forward, complete the Pre-Approval form in Etrieve.
Work with the grants support team to develop the application. The project’s Subject
Matter Expert should plan to provide content as needed throughout the drafting process.
