Sources
You can only apply for either the SOG or the EEG for your event. You cannot apply for both grants for the same event.
Student Development Funding Committee (SDFC)
The SDFC is made up of 3 undergraduate students, 3 graduate students, the Associate Director of Campus and Community Life (advisor), and Student Life's Director of Finance and Administration (ex officio member).
The SDFC reviews proposals of recognized student organizations and individuals applying for the Student Organizations Grant (SOG) and the Educational Enhancement Grant (EEG). The SDFC is a student review committee for these proposals, and committee members are trained in the approval guidelines, provide an unbiased viewpoint, and promote the good use of Student Activity Fees. This committee works to provide an equitable review of each proposal, regardless of content.
Proposals for each grant are must be submitted at least 21 days in advance of the event/experience. They are reviewed each week (except over student breaks) with the weekly deadline of Wednesday by 5pm. Registered organizations and individuals will receive notification of the funding decision by the following Wednesday of the review period.
Student Organization Grant
The purpose of the Student Organization Grant (SOG) is to enrich student life and increase student engagement through events and programming sponsored by IUPUI registered student organizations. Allocated funds should benefit the IUPUI student experience and further the endeavors of intellectual development, cultural competence, and critical thinking.
Educational Enhancement Grant
The purpose of the Educational Enhancement Grant (EEG) is to enhance professional and academic development and leadership training to further the overall educational experience for undergraduate students of IUPUI. EEG must provide professional or leadership training related to your academic major or organizational purpose. Students can apply for this grant as a registered student organization or as an individual if they are participating in an experience that is not planned by themselves or their organization.
