FINANCIAL POLICY

The final constitutional duty of the Financial Advisory Board is to review and approve changes to the Treasury Handbook. The Treasury Handbook is the overarching document that provides the guidelines and rules that the SGA Treasury and SGA-recognized organizations must follow. The purpose of this duty is to provide a check on the Executive Treasurer's control of financial policy. All changes to the handbook must be approved by the Financial Advisory Board before taking effect.

APPEALS

Any SGA-recognized organization or college-recognized Fraternity or Sorority can appeal for funding from the Student Activities Fee. The Financial Advisory Board oversees all budgetary appeals. The appeals process begins by submitting an Appeals Request on EmConnect. Once complete, the packet is reviewed by the Financial Advisory Board which must provide a recommendation before it is presented to Student Assembly for final approval. 

For any questions about SGA Appeals please contact the Executive Treasurer. 

ANNUAL BUDGET REQUEST (ABR)

Every organization that the SGA has recognized with funding goes through a financial application process. Each organization’s budget for the year is determined the prior spring semester. Each organization will be able to submit an Annual Budget Request on EmConnect in which they will list budget priorities according to the policies of the SGA and the Financial Advisory Board.

For more on organization allocations, please contact the Executive Treasurer.
