REQUIRED GRANT FORMS

FORM A: Intent to Write a Proposal

Submit Form A as soon as possible after deciding to apply for a grant. This gets routed to your institution’s Dean of Administration or Chief Budget/Finance Officer for approval.

Submit this form at least two business days before the proposal is due. It goes to the Office of Sponsored Projects for review, then is routed to your institution’s approving officials, including the Dean of Administration/Chief Budget Officer, Provost/Chief Academic Officer (if applicable), and the President.

FORM C: New Award Set Up

Within 30 days of being notified of your grant award, submit Form C, along with a signed copy of the grant agreement. If the amount awarded differs from the proposed budget, include a revised budget. This is routed to your President for approval. Once Form C is approved, the Business Office will set up the grant account.
