Have an international partner The internal deadline to submit an international research grant application to UnivRS and obtain all academic approvals for institutional review and approval is ten (10) business days prior to the external agency’s deadline. Applications submitted 5 – 10 business days before the external deadline: An International Research Specialist (IRS) may be able to conduct a preliminary compliance review of the submission, case-by-case, if time and other priorities allow. If this review is not possible an IRS will approve the application with the understanding that it has obtained academic approvals and the PI is responsible for adhering to agency and funding program guidelines, research security guidelines and the deybwewin | taapwaywin | tapwewin: Indigenous Truth policy.

If a grant is awarded, we will complete the compliance review at this stage and if it is not possible to ensure compliance based on USask policies,



negotiate grant provisions with the funding agency or adjust the proposed budget of the grant at this stage, USask may not be able to accept the grant. Applications submitted less than 5 business days before the external deadline: In situations where the application is received less than five business days of the competition deadline, we may facilitate institutional approval without review with the understanding that the applicant, facilitators, and other units on campus who have contributed to the development of the application have ensured that all required elements are complete per the agency guidelines. In the case of submissions submitted without review, the applicant assumes responsibility for application rejection or compliance issues.

Please note that if institutional instances of non-compliance are found after submission, the application may be withdrawn if the issues cannot be remedied, or the acceptance of a research funding may require the removal or modification of any troublesome clauses(s) and /or satisfactory resolution of deviations from university or agency policies.
