Submission Deadlines Policy:
To ensure compliance with KSU and federal or non-federal sponsor policies, requirements, and regulations, Principal Investigators (PIs) must adhere to the ORI Intent to Submit Policy and the Grant Submission Deadlines Policy.
The Intent to Submit Policy states that an Intent to Submit (ITS) form must be submitted at least 30 calendar days before the federal funding agency's due date for grants to federal agencies, or at least 15 calendar days before the external funding agency's due date for grants to non-federal sponsors or grants being submitted by another institution in which KSU is named as a subrecipient.
The ORI Grant Submission Deadlines Policy states that an ITS form must be submitted at least 30 calendar days before the federal funding agency's due date, near-final budgets must be submitted to ORI at least two weeks prior to the sponsor deadline, and complete grant application packages must be submitted to ORI in final form five (5) business days before the sponsor's due date. The final submission package must include a Grant Submission Form signed by the PI's Dean or Department Chair. Failure to meet these deadlines will result in the proposal not being submitted to the sponsor on behalf of KSU.
All deadlines associated with the new Grant Submission Deadlines Policy are summarized in the graphic below. You can find more information on the updated Grant Submission policy here.
