Forms and Descriptions

In an effort to make things easier for organizations as well as reduce paper use, Student Government is only accepting forms electronically. While some of these forms are submitted on a regular basis, others may only be submitted as needed according to your organization’s situation.

  • Budget Update: Every organization is required to submit this form twice a semester (mid-semester and end of the semester) to update Student Government on activities and spending. If you don’t have a budget, you still need to submit this form. Due dates for Fall 2009: Mid-semester: September 30th. Final: December 1st.
  • Supplemental Allocation Form: Used by Student Government funded clubs and organizations to fund events or equipment that are not included in the club’s budget request. Supplementary allocations may not be used as budget extensions and may not be used for the purposes listed at the bottom of the form. A representative from the organization should attend the weekly Budget Committee meeting to present the Supplementary Allocation request and answer questions.
  • Food Expenditure Approval Form: Use this form to request approval for food expenditures exceeding 15% of your initial budget allocation. Any food costs that exceed this 15% must be approved via this form and will be considered on the basis of the value they add to your event.Requests must be submitted online by noon on the day of the Budget Committee meeting for review.
  • Leadership Change Form: Use this form to report a change in your organization’s leadership for Student Government and Student Life records.
