Budget and Financial Procedures
Student clubs and organizations, except those that are funded in a substantial way through a separate portion of the University's General Fee or another University office or department, are eligible to receive funding from the SOBOG. These funds are administered by the council's executive director and board of governors, with assistance from the Office of Student Activities & Facilities.
Currently, SOBOG allocates funds to student organizations on a per-event basis. In order to receive funding the organization must:
- Be a University-recognized student organization
- Have elected officers in place
- Have selected and retained a faculty/staff advisor
- Have completed the annual registration process
- Have attended required all required SOBOG meetings and/or training sessions
- Have followed the required procedures and completed the necessary documentation to request funding
Requests for funding must be in writing on the appropriate form and contain all of the information required.
Some additional documentation (such as contracts, invoices, and other materials) may be required for submission prior to the approval of a funding request or the distribution of those funds. Contracts, invoices, or other statements must be submitted two weeks before the event for payment to be received on time. Upon completion of the event, all receipts and any remaining funds must be submitted with a completed evaluation form. Receipts and evaluations are due five (5) days after an event. Funds cannot be drawn for the next event until outstanding funds are reconciled.
