New Huntington Corbin Applicants
When you click the Access Huntington Corbin Application Portal button on the Apply Here page, it takes you to the “Welcome” Page of Huntington’s Portal. Click on the “Grants:” link or, at the top of the page, click on “Grant Applicants”. Either link takes you to the “Welcome – Grant Application Portal” Page. Follow the prompts to become a registered Grant Administrator. Once a Grant Administrator, you will be able to register your organization and explore available grants, specifically apply for a Corbin grant, track any application’s status, view your award history, etc.
- Your password must be a combination of letters, numbers, symbols and be 10 characters long.
- Be sure to write down your login name and password for future reference. Huntington does not have access to your password.
- If you forget your password or Login User Name, click on Forgot Password or Forgot Login on the “Welcome” Page and follow the prompts.
Once in the Huntington Portal, click around to orientate yourself about “How to Apply”, “Applying for a Grant”, “Application History & Status”, and other information links.
Working with the Online Application Form
New to Corbin are the Prequalifying Questions that must be answered each time you begin a new application.
The Huntington Corbin online application form is not that much different than Corbin’s previous online application form. Most of the questions are similar, if not the same. You still may want to read through a PDF printed copy of the online form before entering your answers and prepare and draft your answers in a word processing program to copy and paste into the online form fields.
Once in the application, familiarize yourself with the button links at the bottom of a Section Page. These button links include arrow buttons, “Save”, “Save & Continue”, “Save & Return to Details”, “Preview PDF”, and “Return” button links.
Save your work at the bottom of each Section of the application often. The site will time out after 20 minutes and any unsaved work may be lost. At any time, you may Save, Logout, and return to your application later by logging back in, and under the “Grantee View” Page, use the “Application History & Status” link on the left to resume the application in process.
When you are prepared to submit your online application, be sure to have the documents listed and described in the Portal’s Application Dashboard’s “Supplemental Documentation” area ready for upload. Accepted file types are PDF, docx, xls, xlsx:
- Letter of Endorsement, if needed
- IRS 501(c)3 letter
- List of Board of Trustees
- IRS Form 990
- Most Recently Audited Financial Statements, if available
- Itemized Total Request Budget
- Itemized Total Project Budget
- Annual Organizational Budget
- Strategic or Business Plan, if available
- Annual Report, if available
- Other Optional Information
Submission Steps
When the application is sitting in your Portal as “in progress” draft form, the application cannot be seen by Huntington/Corbin.
Once the application is entirely filled out and complete, you will see a new button on the application screen that says “Sign and Submit”. The application will not be submitted to Huntington/Corbin until you click the SUBMIT button.
Remember to SUBMIT the application prior to the application deadline. If the application is open and you are working on it when the deadline cutoff occurs, the system will close the application and not allow its submission past the deadline. Late applications will not be accepted, regardless of the reason (computer problems, power outages, internet connectivity issues, etc.), so plan to fill in and SUBMIT the application well in advance of the deadline. Consider your computer’s internet connection and speed, because uploading large data files does take some time.
Once you have signed and dated your application, you will be able to SUBMIT. A confirmation email will be sent when you SUBMIT your application. Your application is NOT complete until you receive this confirmation email.
If you do not see the e-mail in your inbox, check your “junk” or “spam” folders. If you still do not see the confirmation e-mail, log out and log back into your online Portal. If the draft is still “in progress”, then re-submit.
