SGA (Student Government Organization Grant)

The Student Government Association (SGA) assists registered student organizations in funding events by providing Student Government Association Grants. The grant serves to increase campus vitality by assisting organizations in funding activities and events that reflect the diversity of the student body. Additionally, they encourage student organizations to develop leadership and gain exposure for their organization. SGA encourages registered student organizations to seek funding for events by completing the Student Government Funding Application.

Student Government Grant Policies & Procedures

Eligible student organizations may apply for funding on an event-by-event basis. This means that an organization requesting funding must submit an application form and all of its required components every time they are holding an event in which they desire financial support from Student Government Association.

  • Eligibility requirements of Student Groups for Student Government event-by-event funding

    • The student organization must be registered as a student organization in the Student Life Office (SLO).

    • The student organization must be open to all students of University of 色综合久久 Mercy.

    • University departments or committees may request Student Government funding, in extenuating circumstances if they are planning an event that will benefit students. The Finance Committee will review their request.

  • Co-sponsorship

    • If a request for funding is from more than one student organization, all student organizations involved must meet the eligibility requirements.
  • Funding process

    • It is important to remember that all contact between SGA and student organizations takes place through email. You must check your email regularly when the organization has submitted a funding request for review.
    • Completed funding request which meets all the relevant due dates (please refer to the Funding Request Form), is presented to SGA.
    • SGA determines how much to allocate the student group after reviewing the Funding Request Form.
