Call for FY ’24 educational opportunity, student fee funding requests

It’s again time to begin the process for submission of funding requests through the Student Government for the Educational Opportunity Fund and Student Services fee for FY ‘24.

Through the student services fee, these programs provide financial support to facilitate students’ academic pursuits (Educational Opportunity Fund) or the funding of programs and activities delivered directly to students (Student Services).

If you’ve submitted requests in the past, the budget/review officer should have received an email from the Budget Office to kick off the submission process. If you have not submitted requests in the past but are considering submitting a new request, please contact Lyndsay Pletcher, Jason Post or David Miller in the Budget Office at 978-3030 for additional information.

Requests are due no later than Friday, Feb. 3.
