2013-2014 Mid-Year Supplemental Funding Report

Guidelines for Supplemental Funding Requests

The McIntire School of Commerce provides supplemental funding for Commerce-related student organizations. These funds are designed to supplement (and not take the place of) other sources of revenue such as dues, fundraising, and Student Council appropriations. All McIntire organizations must apply for CIO status and, if qualified, should apply for Student Council funding as a condition of being considered for McIntire supplemental funding.

The level of funding approved in August for a student organization through the McIntire School of Commerce is intended to be its complete allocation from the School for a full year (beginning in August through the following July). Additional funding will be approved only when a considerable change in the status or goals of the organization can be demonstrated.

Some of the guidelines used in determining funding are the following:

  • School allocations will be issued only to University CIOs who remain in good standing as Commerce-related organizations.
  • An organization's membership must consist of at least 30% Commerce students AND at least 60% Commerce + Pre-Commerce students.
  • The School will not, as a general rule, fund travel for student organizations. If it is necessary to take a large group to conferences/meetings, students should share in the expenses or attempt fundraising for travel monies. Please note that Student Council does consider funding requests for travel.
  • Organizations receiving supplemental funding must abide by the alcohol policy of the University and the McIntire School. Failure to do so can result in termination of funding.
  • No Commerce-related organization applying for supplemental funding may solicit donations from external/corporate sources without first consulting with the McIntire Office of Student Services and/or the McIntire External Affairs Office.
  • Any organization receiving McIntire supplemental funding must participate and attend all meetings of the McIntire President’s Council.Failure to do so may result in termination of or diminished funding.

The Mid-Year Supplemental Funding Request (SFR) is required for an organization to receive the second half of their 2013-14 allocated funding. Distribution of spring funding will be determined based upon fall performance and the mid-year report.

The mid-year SFR progress reports will be due Friday, December 6, 2013. Mid-year supplemental funding checks will be available in late January.Direct any questions to the Student Services Office at 434-924-3865.
