Pre- and Post-Award Services
Pre-Award(GDO)
Helps you identify, apply for, and obtain
the funding

avoids conflicts, and provides maximum flexibility.

It is the policy of the College that all grants and contracts submitted to external sources must be cleared through the GDO (grants and some contracts) and/or Sponsored Programs or Finance & Administration (most contracts), and approved by the College’s Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR).

Institutional Relations
Grants Development Office
All external grants must be ‘routed’ for relevant approvals at least 5 working days in advance of the deadline: ● Department Chair ● Dean ● Provost ● VP Finance & Administration
Department Chair and Dean must be informed of intention to submit a grant well in advance of the 5 day routing window, particularly if matching funds, course release, equipment acquisition and/or other institutional commitments are anticipated
Final budget is included with routing form; GDO/SP Directors help develop and review budgets in advance, and facilitate institutional routing
Remember – the institution, not the faculty member, is the grant awardee. In order for the College to accept an award, routing procedures must be
followed. Always contact the GDO first thing if you are even thinking you might be interested in submitting a grant, regardless of source!
