Entering UGF (block grant) awards

The Graduate College provides academic units with an annual allocation of resources (i.e., block grant) to be used as University Graduate Fellowships to facilitate the recruitment and completion of the most diverse and high quality on-campus immersion PhD students.  Allocations for the upcoming academic year are coordinated with Deans in the prior academic year. If you have questions about your unit's allocation, please contact your Dean's office.

Academic units need to enter the information into Gportal Financial (cs.oasis.asu.edu) to ensure that students receive this funding appropriately.

New users, will need to enroll in a training course and request the appropriate PeopleSoft role. For instructions on how to do this, please email [email protected].
