It is important to fill in every box on the form.

Enter the 9-digit UCPATH employee ID number for the PI.

Ensure the employee campus title is the host title the PI will be working under at campus.

Confirm and verify from Campus the name and email of the Host Administrative Contact every time you submit an MLA, including modifications and extensions

Page 2 | Describe the Scope of ILA Assignment

Below, please describe the work scope of the MLA assignment and include the following:

The name of the supervisor that the employee will be reporting to on campus.
The name of the project that the employee will be working on campus.
The type of work that the employee will be performing on campus (i.e. researching, teaching, collaborating, etc.) Keep this description to 3-4 sentences. We are interested in the type of work that the employee will be performing.

Next Steps

Once the MLA request form is submitted to the ILA Office and approved, the ILA Office works to obtain the following from Campus:

UPAY, Purchase Order and Approvals

ILA Office will create a UPAY form to send to Campus for approvals and a purchase order.
ILA Office receives the approved UPAY form and purchase order from Campus, then we can open, extend, or modify the award.
ILA Office notifies all stakeholders via email confirmation with a completion memo and PID number.

***No work can begin until the award is open in the financial system (eSRA) by the ILA Office.
