Policies Regarding Submitting Proposals at Hiram
It is the responsibility of OCFR to review and submit all grant proposals to external funding sources as well as maintain records on all grant submissions, awards and renewals. In order to assist OCFR in this process:
- Faculty preparing to submit a grant proposal must contact OCFR the earlier in the process the better.
- All external grant proposals for research, programs, projects, etc. must be approved by appropriate College officials, including the President, before being submitted to a funding prospect. It is a shared responsibility of OCFR and the principal investigator/program director to obtain the required signatures.
- Completed proposals (without the help of OCFR) must be submitted to OCFR for review and to obtain signatures five working days prior to the submission deadline. OCFR will copy, collate and mail proposals
- Notice of approval, denial, renewal and extension of all grants must be reported to OCFR for tracking purposes.
- All grant monies must be processed through the OCFR – Development Office. A new account number must be used for any grant monies received. OCFR will provide the Budget Office with the necessary documentation to obtain an account number for each grant received.
- OCFR will work with the PI/PD of any grant received from an external source to meet all reporting requirements outlined in the grant contract or terms of grant. OCFR will keep on file all correspondence to the funder.
