There are steps every student group must complete before applying for funds. After successful completion, that student group is eligible to apply for funds for the rest of the current school year:
Update your group's Terplink profile and register with SORC
If your group's leadership has changed and you have a new President and/or Treasurer, you must update your group's profile. Please check to ensure that your group's profile reflects the most up-to-date information, as only a group's current President and/or Treasurer are authorized to submit applications on your group's behalf. After submitting your renewal request, you will receive confirmation from SORC when it has been received and approved. Take me to Terplink
SGA-Recognition
Funding from the Student Activities Fee is only available to SGA-recognized student groups, and groups must be re-recognized every school year. In order to be recognized by the SGA, your student group must meet the following qualifications:
Your group must have at least 25 undergraduate members.
Your group must be non-discriminatory and non-exclusionary.
Your group must not charge dues for active, voting membership.
If you have any questions or concerns about your SGA-recognition status, please email the current Director of Student Groups at [email protected]. Take me to the SGA Student Groups Committee website
Budget Training
After receiving SGA recognition, a student group's Treasurer and/or President may become certified in the SGA Finance Process by attending a Budget Training Workshop. Funding Requests may only be submitted by certified Treasurers or Presidents of SGA-recognized student groups. As of right now, budget workshops are online. The link to the training is located on the home page.
If your group is planning to request funds to purchase physical items, you must attach to your application an up-to-date record of any items that your group currently holds that were purchased using SGA funds. Please export the tab found on your group organization's ledger! Your group will not receive any new funding for physical items unless an inventory record is provided. If your group does not currently own any items that were purchased with SGA funds, you should indicate that in your application.
