1. Introduction
Actions that require prior approval are cited in the award documents for
each sponsored project or in general agency guidelines. The more standard
and critical deadlines and prior approval requirements for Federal and Federal
flow-through awards are summarized on the "Federal Regulatory Checklists"
provided by the Office of Contracts and Grants to the principal investigator
and college business officer.
2. Procedure for Prior Approval Request
All post-award administrative actions requiring prior approval based on University
or Sponsor regulations must be forwarded to the Office of Contracts and Grants
using the Prior Approval Request Form (CG-005). The Prior Approval Request
Form should be completed with all required information/signatures and be accompanied
by written technical justification in support of the requested action(s).
This C&G form can be used to request multiple actions at one time but
should NOT be used to request set up of a "pre-award" project. The
Office of Contracts and Grants will review the requested action(s). Approval
or disapproval of the action(s) will be made by the Office of Contracts and
Grants or the sponsoring agency, as appropriate. If contract modification
is necessary, the Office of Sponsored Programs and Regulatory Compliance Services
will be included in the approval/denial process.
To obtain the form and instructions for completion, please go to the Contracts and Grants
