Because many student programs require funding, several resources are available to assist in the cost of such programs. After researching expenses and completing a budget, students may proceed to apply for funds from funding groups. Funding requests most commonly fall into the areas of operations, special events, and travel. The Student Organizations Finance Office must review and approve travel and special events budgets before starting the funding process.
Sources for student fee funds include the following: Cultural Events Board, the University of Colorado Student Union’s Representative Council and Council of Colleges and Schools, the Arts and Sciences Student Government, and most other student governments for the nine Colleges and Schools. Organizations can not receive funds from more than two student government sources. The Student Organizations Finance Office offers information on how to plan an activity and apply for funding.
