To the UMBC Sponsored Award Community,
Thanks to those of you who have completed your Effort Report Certifications!
This is a reminder that Effort Reports for Fall 2023 are due March 31, 2024.
The Fall 2023 period includes Payroll 2024-001 through Payroll 2024-014 (from June 18, 2023 through December 30, 2023).
