Grant Submission Process


Budget Preparation > Other Personal Services

Expenditures related to consultants, honoraria, service contracts, non-employee travel, for example fall under what OHIO deems other personal services. Sometimes sponsors will also use a term similar for such cost items. It is important to note is that any person on an Ohio University contract cannot be a consultant. They may perform a service similar to that of a consultant, but they must be included in the budget at personnel with the appropriate fringe benefits assessed. The use of consultants will be discussed in a later section.
