While supported by Student Involvement, the success of student organizations depends primarily on the student leaders andÌýmembers of each organization. Student organizations have the unique challenge of funding most of their activitiesÌýthrough membership dues,Ìýfundraisers,Ìýand generous donations from outside supporters.Ìý

Average costs associated with student organizations include resources for hosting significant campus events, member development, travel costs for out-of-town conferences, and official organization t-shirts. Organizations engage in fundraising activities throughout the year to offset the increasing costs associated with being active and successful on campus. Ìý

ÌýNote: This must be filled out at least two weeks (14 days) before the event or program.Ìý
