Overview
Which proposals must be
processed through ORSP?
ORSP must be involved the submission process for restricted use
grants, contracts, and other sponsored awards if one or more of the following apply:
- a specific program of work or research is proposed to, or
required by the sponsor
- the sponsor requires an authorized institutional signature
- the sponsor requires or expects one or more progress reports,
a final report, financial reports and/or formal accounting of
how the funds were expended
- there are intellectual property, confidentiality, and/or publication
conditions associated with the receipt of funds
You should contact Development
if you are seeking one of the following:
- cash gifts designated for generic research (no specific statement of work)
- unrestricted cash gifts
- donations of equipment and other non-cash items
You should contact Development for
assistance with solicitation of philanthropic gits from foundations
and individuals. Some foundations limit the number of applications
that can be submitted from an institution.
Some proposals are
best submitted by the SFA Foundation rather than the university. These grant applications are coordinated efforts of ORSP and the Office of Development.
