Cayuse Sponsored Projects FAQ's

Who is responsible for creating the proposal in Cayuse?

The PI is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the proposal includes correct information and is approved prior to the internal proposal deadline.  The Department or College staff may be able to assist with proposal creation.  ORSP does not complete the proposal but may be contacted for assistance if the above resources do not answer your questions. 

How do I request a No-cost Extension/Budget Revision/Change in Key Personnel in Cayuse?

The Prior Approval Request Form should be completed whenever a change is needed for a project. The form asks specific questions for the following types of requests:

  • No-Cost Extension
  • Key Personnel Change
  • Budget Revision

There is also a section for "Other" request that may be needed.  Once the form is completed, please print it to a PDF and send it, by creating a task in Cayuse to the correct ORSP team (Green Team or White Team) for processing.  

Who do I contact about my proposal/award?

You can contact your Sponsored Programs Manager in ORSP.  Please visit the ORSP Service Center to find the correct Sponsored Programs Manager Team assigned to your college, department or center.
