As either a registered student organization, graduate student organization, or fraternity/sorority, you will have the opportunity to apply for funding that can be used for the official business expenses of your student organization. From expenses required for an upcoming programming event to the everyday operational costs of your organization, funds awarded through your appropriate funding body can be used to assist with paying these various expenses.
Applying for funding is a process that will be undertaken via either the SGA Independent Financial Board, the Graduate Student Association (GSA) Appropriations Committee, or the Fraternity and Sorority Governing Council Finance Committee, depending on the classification of your designated student organization.
Each student organization will have their own specific application requirements, dependent on the organization's classification. For any questions that you may have regarding this process, please see the contact information below:
Virginia Commonwealth University SGA Independent Financial Board: sgafunding@vcu.edu
Virginia Commonwealth University GSA Appropriations: studentorgs@vcu.edu
Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL) Finance Committee: vcu.fsl.financecommittee@gmail.com
If your student organization has received approvals of funding requests through the appropriate funding committees granting that funding, your next step is finance training. Access to finance training will be sent to the President and Treasurer of the organization and must be completed and prior to accessing funds.
For any questions regarding use of approved funding, including purchase requests, reimbursements, contracts, allowed and prohibited items, and so on please feel free to contact Brendon Pocialik, Coordinator for Student Organization Finance: cfsof@vcu.edu.
