How do you apply for USG Funding?

Only after the funding training is completed will an RSO gain access to the funding system.

The funding request form for Tier II RSOs is now located in Kuali, after clicking on the funding system button you will automatically be brought to the funding form.

Who allocates USG Funding?

The Undergraduate Student Government's Funding Student Staff is entrusted with the responsibility of appropriating funds to Tier II Undergraduate Organizations in accordance with policies, acts, and regulations set forth by the Undergraduate Student Senate and in accordance with any applicable State laws and University policies. 

 

Funding Requests

Your complete and correct Funding Request must be submitted (with all necessary quotes, event information, rosters, etc.) at least 6 weeks before your event, or the date that your supplies/money is needed and within the semester funding deadlines listed above.

If your Funding Request is not complete and correct a minimum of 6 weeks before your event or the date that your supplies/money is needed and within the semester funding deadlines set by the Funding Student Staff Supervisor, your request may not be funded.  As such, it is recommended that you submit your requests before the 6 week deadline so that any errors can be corrected in time.

After the Student Funding Staff reaches a tentative decision, groups will be notified if they were fully funded, partially funded, or not funded at all. Then, your Funding Requests are subject to final approval. Once funding has been approved, groups will be notified again. Your funding must be approved prior to any purchases made by the Funding Student Staff.
