From : Wendy Montgomery, Director, ORA
This is ORA’s annual reminder regarding the University’s scheduled holiday closings and the need for timely proposal submissions. The University will be closed for the holidays, Thursday, November 26, 2020 and Friday, November 27, 2020; and from Friday, December 25, 2020 through Friday January 1, 2021. In order to ensure submission of endorsed proposals to the sponsor before each holiday break, the deadlines for proposal submissions to the Office of Research Administration are:
| Latest Delivery Deadline to ORA | To Ensure That Endorsed Proposal is Submitted to the Sponsor By |
|---|---|
| WEDNESDAY (November 18) | WEDNESDAY (November 25) |
| THURSDAY (December 17) | THURSDAY (December 24) |
Any proposals which are submitted to ORA LATER than the above schedule may run the risk of not being reviewed, approved and submitted through the University’s routing process by the sponsor’s deadline date. Please share this information with faculty within your departments.
We greatly appreciate your cooperation in these matters.
