About GSSA Event Funding

In order to be eligible for funding, an organization must be in good standing with GSSA. Any event with a request of over $250.00 must be accompanied by a budget for the event, to be presented at the GSSA meeting prior to a vote for approval. There is no limit as to how many events an organization can request funding for. The GSSA assembly approves all entertainment applications by majority vote. Requests must be made by through the Online Event Request System no less than 48 hours before the GSSA meeting at which the application will be discussed.

At the next GSSA meeting, the assembly will either approve or deny the application by majority vote. Therefore, a representative from the organization applying for funding must attend the GSSA meeting to answer questions. If a representative is not present at the meeting, the application will not be considered at that time.

GSSA cannot under any circumstances reimburse an individual student for alcohol purchases if the organization has not followed and complied with proper event registration procedure with the Office of Student Programs. This is a very lengthy and involved process, so start early.
