Welcome to the NRHC 2027 Proposal Submission Site

Important: All proposers may submit ONE proposal.

Students
Use your college email address during the proposal process and ensure your Honors Director's contact information is entered correctly. Your director will be copied on important proposal notifications.
We encourage you to discuss your proposal ideas early with your Honors Director, faculty member, or mentor. Be sure to ask about potential financial support for registration and travel expenses.

Honors Directors
If you are submitting a proposal on behalf of a student, you must create the proposal using the student's name and email address. A separate account must be created for each student proposal.
You will have an opportunity to provide Honors Director information within each submission.
