What are the benefits for researchers in having a duly completed Commitment Form prior to submission?

The CU Commitment Form provides documentation, in a single location, of all Carleton contributions to a research project, including detailing any relevant conditions or restrictions on the contributions. This provides clarity to you, as the researcher, on the full details on how to access and maximize the benefits from these contributions when you are awarded the funds.

A duly completed CU Commitment Form also ensures that OVPRII can more efficiently pay out contributions from OVPRI to you (the principal investigator [PI]), without follow-up by yourself to each contributor, upon fund opening.
