Now that SGA is no longer accepting allocation requests, we have to move on to our planning for next year. Forms and information regarding the spring budget process (the process in which your organization requests operational funds for 2006-2007) are available online on the SGA website at www.ithaca.edu/sga. If you have any questions at all, especially if you have a transitioning executive board, please try to reach me by e-mail at SGABusiness@ithaca.edu. I will begin accepting applications (ONLINE ONLY!) as soon as the forms are available (which should be the night of Monday, April 3rd). The form is simple, and by reading the information regarding the process, many of your questions may be answered. Good luck, and welcome to the process!
