A new Policy for Routing Grants and Contracts is now available on the intranet under the Research, Scholarships, Grants, and Contracts heading.

This policy indicates:

• The PI must submit the UMSON Pre-Award Form at least six weeks prior to the sponsor’s deadline.
• Seven business days prior to the sponsor’s deadline, the PI must submit the application for approval routing via the Kuali system. It must include all required, relevant, and necessary documents as well as a finalized budget.
• Five business days prior to the sponsor’s deadline, the PI must finalize all documents within the application.
• Any proposal not received by the close of business on the indicated deadline dates will not be submitted.
