New Sponsor and Sub-Contractor Request
If an entity is not available in UTHealth Houston Start, submit a Sponsor and Subcontract Request form to [email protected]
Processing Time
Please note that processing sponsor and subcontractor requests usually takes 2 - 3 business days, depending on the screening/verification process.
While waiting for a new sponsor, you may select the "Default Sponsor" as a placeholder.
However, for a new subcontractor, you must wait for the subcontractor profile to be set up before you can add the subcontractor and subcontract budget information to UTHealth Houston START. Please plan accordingly.
What can make processing take longer?
Most commonly - though not exclusively - the following features can cause screening an entity to take longer:
- Incomplete Access Form
- Foreign entity
- Not much official / publicly available info
- Entity is unresponsive/slow to respond
-
