MSCA PF eligibility compliance scan
Confirm eligibility early—before you invest months of work.
Before you spend time and resources on an MSCA PF application, you need to know whether you meet the official eligibility rules and whether there are any hidden risks (mobility rule, PhD timing, resubmission constraints, etc.). We review your academic timeline, research experience, and application context and return a concise report with clear conclusions and practical recommendations. This early validation helps you proceed with confidence.
You will receive:
Eligibility Report — clear eligibility conclusion + risks and edge cases
Competitiveness Snapshot — a high-level view of how your profile aligns with MSCA expectations
Mobility / Residency Risk Check — flags related to stays in the host country (non-legal guidance)
MSCA PF concept review - EC evaluator feedback
Get a go/no-go verdict on your concept—before you invest months writing.
In 7–10 business days after submission, an evaluator from our network with European Commission expert-evaluator experience in EU funding programmes reviews your profile, host context, and 1000–1500 word concept summary. You receive structured, evaluator-style feedback focused on what drives scores at MSCA level: clarity and ambition of the idea, fit with the host and panel, and the main evaluation risks that could sink the proposal if not fixed early. Ideal for candidates at the “idea + host” stage who want a brutally honest reality check and a clear plan to move forward.
You will receive:
Go / Rework / No-go Recommendation — a clear recommendation on viability at this stage
Concept Scorecard (3 ratings) — Excellence (concept-level), MSCA Alignment (early-stage), Implementation (framework)
Top 2–3 Evaluation Risks — the main score-killers to address early
Top 3 Priority Actions — what to fix first to improve competitiveness
Readiness Assessment — write now vs. rework before drafting
MSCA PF expert proof & polish
Make your MSCA PF crystal-clear and fully compliant—before you submit.
In 6–8 working days, an MSCA-experienced editor will proofread and copyedit your full draft to publication-quality English. We improve clarity and flow, remove ambiguity, enforce consistent terminology, and align your text with the official MSCA PF template and page limits. Ideal for candidates with a complete draft who need polished language and spotless compliance. Submit with confidence.
You will receive:
Line-by-line Proofreading & Copyediting — grammar, syntax, style, clarity, and flow
