Ultimately, the proposal should be a representation of the work to come. This means that the proposal needs to be solid as it is the foundation of the study. Once the foundation is firm, it then becomes easier to build on it for the chapters to come. The more the study is aligned with all the primitive elements (problem statement, research questions, theoretical framework), it allows for a more seamless approval process. We coach you and help to review your proposal so that the approval process is smooth, irrespective of which process your university follows.
