Funding

University Funding of Undergraduate Organizations

The Undergraduate Organizations Committee (UOC)

Funds have been provided to the UOC for disbursement to registered undergraduate organizations. Organizations should be aware that rarely is the entire budget funded and that the committee does not provide funding for off-campus travel. A copy of the committee’s guidelines and forms for applying for funding are available from the dean of Student Affairs or on line.

The Dean’s Discretionary Fund

Registered undergraduate organizations may request funding from the Dean’s Discretionary Funds (D&PDF). Funding is limited and not typically granted for routine, yearly activities. For the 2016-2017 Academic Year, there will be four funding rounds. The deadlines are: 

Round Date

Round 1

September 1, 2016
Round 2 November 1, 2016
Round 3 February 1, 2017
Round 4 March 1, 2017 

Applications must include a budget showing all expected income and expenses, and if funding is granted, the organization is required to complete the DDF receipt submission form.  Receipts must be submitted at the conclusion of the event to verify that the money was spent in a manner consistent with the application.
