FUNDING REQUEST GUIDELINES

Please note the following guidelines when submitting an ASOC Funding Request Form:

*Note- These are determined at the discretion of ASOC Senate and are subject to change. Also, funding is not guaranteed.

• We encourage clubs to approach Senate early and seek funding from multiple sources.
• If the organization purchases a physical item, that item, is the property of ASOC Senate. Should the item be requested at any time, the item must be produced. If a club fails to do so, they will be required to seek a replacement by the time the organizations submits their next funding request or else they will not receive funding until the item is produced.
• Events receiving ASOC funding must acknowledge ASOC sponsorship on ALL promotional materials (posters, Facebook, digest, etc.).
• All costs must be itemized on the Funding Request Form to the best of the organization’s knowledge and ability.
• Please list all costs associated with an event on the Funding Request Form even if you are not requesting ASOC funding for some items, giving Senate a more holistic view of the event.
• Funding for events that are sponsored by more than one club will be allocated only into one club account.
• All requests for co-sponsorship and outside contributions for an event must be reported on the Funding Request Form with amounts.
• ASOC is prohibited by college policy to fund alcohol, but will consider the cost of alcohol as a factor of the total event cost.
• ASOC will not fund prizes or any related “give-away” items, although they will be accounted for as a factor of the total event cost.
• ASOC funds shall not be used to compensate student’s services rendered on behalf of the club or organization.
• ASOC guarantees funding food for the first meeting only. Please note this does not mean a club will receive full funding.
• If your event is on campus, you must have a master calendar confirmation before Senate votes on your request (please see an OSL PA for help with this).
• All Club Sports funding requests must be submitted to the Coordinator of Recreational Sports.
