Funding

Funding Overview

Announcement: As of February 4th, the commitee is operating on a waitlist. Clubs are still open to submit budgets. However, because the committee is low on funding, we will be reaching out to clubs individually to present and receive funding as funds are returned to the committee. 

Student organizations that are recognized through the Office of Student Engagement are eligible to request funding for their organization from the Student Governance Council Appropriations Committee. This Committee meets at 7PM via Zoom every Wednesday except for weeks of an academic break or finals. After you have submitted a budget, you will be invited to the meeting the week of via an email. All decisions are emailed to club treasurers at 10am the Friday after the meeting.  

To find the budget template and for general FAQ's please scroll to the bottom of the page. For all other inquiries please email sgcbusiness@ithaca.edu. 

Funding Reminders

Budgets for the Appropriations Committee are due every Sunday at 11:59pm on Engage.

Budgets must be submitted at least 2 weeks in advance of planned events and 8 weeks advance of planned travel. However, aim to get them in as early as possible, especially if the event is large or requires an online purchase. 

All budgets must have proper supporting documentation.

To hire a contractor (weather they be student or outside entity) you must have a contract approved by the Associate Director of Student Involvement in the Office of Student Engagement. 

The commitee will start hearing Spring budgets at the beginning of Block II, October 20th.
