Instructions for Applying for Fiscal Funding from UISG

If your organization relies on funding from UISG, it is highly recommended that you submit a fiscal budget request as your organization may find it difficult to obtain adequate funding through supplemental periods alone.

-The FY14 Fall Supplemental funding deadline is Friday, September 13th at 5:00pm.  No exception to the deadline will be made.

-Submit budgets under the budget period “FY14 Supplemental 1 - Non-CFOs”.

-We ask that you submit budget items according to priority, putting most important items at the top of your budget request and least important items towards the bottom.

-Please request funding for all events, trips, supplies, etc. that you will need for the within the fiscal year (July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014).  UISG considers funding requests for the entire fiscal year, while ECGPS will only consider requests for items occurring during the Fall 2013 semester.

-The current Maximum Funding Standards will apply; however, travel requests may be considered depending upon the total amount of funding requested.

Please do not hesitate to contact UISG Chief Financial Officer Drew Turner at drew-turner@uiowa.edu with questions or advice regarding your organization’s fiscal budget request.

Max Funding Standards

  • The Max Funding Standards are the guidelines that SABAC will use to make allocation decisions for FY 2014.  Please note the following changes: 
    1. Maximum Honoraria funding is $1,500 based on projected attendance
    2. Venue rental fees for non-UI facilities (with the exception of Old Brick) will not be funded
    3. Venue rental fees for recurring events such as meetings will not be funded
  • It is highly recommended that student organizations refer to these guidelines when creating and submitting a budget request.
