Grant Policies and Guidelines
ALERT: Effective July 1, 2026 - Sponsored Project Accounts
- Expense Transfers: Sponsored project accounts will no longer be permitted to transfer expenses onto an account more than 120 days after the original posting date in SAP.
- Unallowable Expenses: Any expense determined to be unallowable must be promptly removed from the sponsored project and transferred to an appropriate cost center, regardless of when the unallowable nature of the expense is identified.
Compliance with these requirements is necessary to ensure adherence to institutional standards and sponsor requirements. Exceptions will be granted only under limited circumstances and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by Grant Accounting.
Please share this information with all individuals supporting sponsored programs. For questions contact grantacct@cmich.edu.
