Approval Checklist

• This is a list of individual items that must be completed as you work through the process of getting your project approved. Pay attention to exactly who needs to sign what and when.

Detailed Description

• Make this as detailed as possible. If someone says, “What’s your project?” this is your answer. 
• NOTHING IN THIS DESCRIPTION SHOULD COME AS A SURPRISE TO YOUR MENTOR. FIGURE THIS STUFF OUT WITH THEM BEFORE YOU SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL!
• Pay attention to word count!

Logistics

• Your proposal will not be approved if you are unable to tell us how you are going to make it all happen. 
• Pay attention to word count!

Challenge

• Your challenges MAY NOT BE:
  • time management
