Application guidance

For Pitch 4 Progress, applicants should clearly articulate the community need their project addresses and demonstrate a feasible plan for implementation. Proposals that show genuine collaboration with local partners and a realistic budget tend to fare well. Since this is a student competition, eligibility is limited to currently enrolled UNO students; external artists may explore other community engagement programs at the university.
