Program Fund Request Information
The University Program Support Committee was appointed to identify programs
for support and review proposals/requests for funding. Program funding
requests must be submitted via the web system at least
eight (8) business days prior to the appropriate University Program Support
Committee meeting date (dates listed below). There will be a limited
number of requests processed at each meeting. Please submit your request as
soon as possible to assure adequate approval time. If your application is
received late, you reduce your chances of receiving Programming funds. Typically,
funds will not be allocated to events retroactively.
The purposes of the University Program Support Fund include (but are
not limited to): providing enhancements for University programs that benefit
a large proportion of the KU community (current students, faculty, and
staff); promoting a sense of community life at KU; promoting academic
life at KU, and promoting community service efforts.
- Receipt of funds does not necessarily indicate that additional or continued support will be available.
- Generally only one award will be made to any given organization or group in the same year.
- Funds are not available for individuals, travel away from campus, scholarly research, fundraising campaigns that benefit KU organizations, political campaigns, scholarships, or activities that do not reach a broad segment of the University community.
- Coca-Cola funds are not intended to fund entire programs/activities, but rather to supplement the budget.
Proposal/Program Information
- All requests must be submitted via the web system.
- All fields in the web system must be completed, including a concise description of the event.
