Frequently-Asked Questions

Who is able to create a new award?

The Notice of Award (NoA) from a sponsor may be sent to either campus (the Principal Investigator or Research Administrator) or the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP).

• If you (campus) receive the NoA, whether or not OSP is included, you should create the Award Setup Request (ASR) in SAGE as soon as possible.
  • Review: How to get an Award set up at the UW
• If OSP receives or retrieves a new NoA and the PI is not included on the notification, OSP will create an Award Setup Request (ASR) and route it to you (campus) for completion.
  • Review the FAQ: What about an Award Setup Request created by OSP?  for an overview, the details on what data OSP will enter, and what data you will need to enter and review.

The system will prevent more than one Award Setup Request being created for the same eGC1.
