Procedures for the purchase of controlled substances with SDSU Research Foundation funds are as follows:


  • Projects must complete an SDSU Research Foundation Purchase Requisition form and an SDSU EHS Controlled Substance Purchase Request form. for review as instructed by the SDSU controlled substances coordinator.
  • The SDSU controlled substances coordinator prepares the necessary DEA forms to forward along with the Purchase Requisition to the SRA grant specialist through MyRF. In some cases, the SDSU controlled substances coordinator works directly with the purchasing department due to the DEA form required.
  • The SRA grant specialist reviews and routes the approved Purchase Requisition through MyRF to purchasing where the order is processed.
  • The buyer completes the order as required by EH&S and vendor, meeting all DEA requirements. All controlled substances are shipped to the following address:
