UCPC Co-Sponsorship Fund
The Co-Sponsorship Fund was created as a source of funding to help registered student organizations or university departments, with little or no budget resources, plan and organize campus-wide events. The programs should be available to the whole student body and provide opportunities in areas such as education, social, recreation and personal growth.
Process for requesting Co-Sponsorship funds:- Pick up a co-sponsorship information packet from the Center for Student Involvement or complete the application on-line.
- Submit a completed application/event proposal and backwards calendar to the Coordinator for Student Programs and Activities in the Center for Student Involvement a minimum of six weeks before the planned event date. The application will be reviewed at the next Co-Sponsorship Fund (CSF) meeting by the Co-Sponsorship Fund Committee (CSFC).
- One or two representatives from the student organization or university department will be asked to attend the CSF meeting to present the proposal to the CSFC and to answer any questions the committee may have about the proposed event.
- After the meeting, CSFC will determine if they will co-sponsor the event and, if so, the amount which will be given towards the event. (The CSFC may decide to fund all, none or part of any event.)
- The student organization or university department will be notified of the CSFC"s decision within one week of presenting the proposal to the committee.
- A contract between the CSFC and the student organization or university department will be developed regarding specifics of the event – responsibilities of specific members for publicity, getting purchase orders completed, hospitality, etc. Members of the CSFC and the student organization or university department are equally responsible for ensuring a successful event, therefore teamwork is essential!
- To appeal any decision, contact the CSFC Chairperson (Program Council President) to schedule a second meeting to review the event application/proposal.
