Progress Reports

Most sponsors require the submission of a progress report. Progress reports that include administrative elements, regardless of whether the sponsor requires signature from the university, must be submitted to Sponsored Research for review. 

Compliance

Compliance with reporting requirements is critical to ensuring continued funding of the University’s research. Failure to submit the required reports can have serious consequences, not only for the individual PI(s), but for the University as a whole.  

CERES Continuation Routing

When a progress report requires signature or submission by Sponsored Research, such as through Commons or to a pass-through entity, a CERES Continuation record is needed. All proposals, including Continuations, should be routed to SR at least five business days prior to the requested deadline to ensure sufficient time for review and correction, if needed.
