Our budget

At the Undergraduate Student Government (USG), transparency and accountability are at the core of everything we do. To further our commitment to these values, we are proud to make the USG budget publicly available on our website. By sharing this information, we aim to provide the UConn community with clear insight into how student fees are allocated to support initiatives, programs, and services that benefit the student body. Scroll down to explore key highlights of our budget and see how we’re investing in a better campus experience for everyone!
