Review specifics about each of these on When do I need an eGC1?

Email osp@uw.edu with the eGC1# in the subject line for your pre-award updates/revision requests to sponsors, including NSF and NIH pre-award updates/revisions. This includes items after a proposal is submitted and before an award arrives at the UW such as Just-in-Time requests.

Create an Award Setup request when you receive a notification of an award from a sponsor AND you have an approved eGC1. Review more guidance on Award Setup Requests

Do you have an award notification, but don’t have an approved eGC1? Follow After-the-Fact eGC1 instructions.

When there are changes needed after an award has been set up in Workday Finance.
