Occasionally, after confirming that the Sponsor is awarding funds to the University, the Sponsor will take a prolonged period of time to negotiate or draw up a contract. During these types of negotiations, it is typical for COERA to request a Credit Authorization with OSP to cover any immediate project spending needs. Types of spending likely to need a credit include:
- Appointments, especially for students who need immediate tuition remission.
- Travel Expenses for immediate anticipated trips.
COERA will work with you to determine the necessary items required to request credit and will coordinate that request with OSP.

If you are collaborating with a Co-PI at another institution and they are subawarding to us, OSP will use the proposal information to begin the contracting process. Please review the following subawardee proposal items for any necessary changes:
- An itemized budget
- A budget justification
- A statement of work for their portion of the work to be performed
Contracting will be an ongoing process with many steps, and OSP and COERA will walk you through to completion.
