Electronic Research Administration (eRA)

For all electronic submissions, final application packages should be made available to OSP, PreAward Services no less than 5 business days prior to the sponsor deadline. After review and approval, PreAward Services will submit the application to the sponsor once the PI has notified us that it is ready for submission.

The following OSP internal forms are required and should be included in the application package. The forms can either be dropped off, scanned and emailed to preaward@uconn.edu or faxed to PreAward Services at 486-3726.

• Internal Proposal Review Form
• Significant Financial Interest Review Form
• NIH Certification Form (if applicable)

An OSP Drop Box has been developed that allows you to upload files for large applications. Once the files have been uploaded, an email containing the download link will be automatically generated and sent to PreAward Services. PreAward staff will then log into the system and retrieve your application. If you need to revise your document, you will need to re-upload to the OSP Drop Box. Files already in the drop box cannot be edited. OSP encourages the use of the drop box for all electronic applications submitted to our office.
