Student Organization/Event Funding

There are a variety of Graduate Student Organizations on the ASU campuses. Organizations span from disciplinary based, research focused, to special interest groups. On this page you will find information of seeking funds for your organization and some useful links to GSO events that GPSA helps to sponsor.

GPSA is pleased to announce that it is soliciting applications to fund Graduate Student Organizations during the 2008-09 Academic Year. Applications can be made using our new online system. If you have not already done so, you will need to create a profile to submit online GPSA applications.

Please be sure to read all rules and guidelines before submitting your application (including the GPSA Policy Paper - Student Organization Funding Policy). In particular, please note that in order to apply, your application MUST be sponsored by a current GPSA Assembly Member. You must have this person's permission BEFORE applying for funds. We strongly recommend working closely with your sponsor to ensure your application is filled out correctly. If an organization fails to comply with this policy, their application will be automatically rejected; no exceptions can be made. To find and contact an Assembly member, please click here.

Please also read the GSO Funding ePacket, which contains the info you need (including forms) if your organization receives funding from GPSA.
