Such projects can be grants, contracts, cooperative agreements, or fellowships.
Policies governing such transfers vary from agency to agency and by type of project.
It is best to consult with the awarding agency concerning its particular requirements. Prior to transferring a sponsored project, the investigator must obtain all approvals and sign-offs required of any new sponsored project. OGC is aware that budgetary requirements vary from institution to institution and that agency constraints may preclude an absolute adherence to all Health Sciences budgetary policies. Whenever possible, this factor will be taken into consideration when reviewing a budget submitted as part of either the transfer application or subsequent non-competing applications. However, at the next competitive renewal, all Health Sciences policies must be adhered to.
