The University prefers a “bright line” date to use in order to begin using the new threshold in proposal budgets. Therefore, proposal budgets should continue using the $2000 threshold for submissions prior to May 1st. If you believe you have a reason to use the new threshold sooner, then please contact OSP at osp@uw.edu with your eGC1 # and your reasoning.
The University intends to “grandfather in” usage of the $2000 threshold for proposals submitted prior to May 1st, no matter the award start date, so there should not be a negative impact to the budget.
