Student Organization Finance Center Team

The Student Organizations Finance Center team provides direct support for over 1200 student organizations and advisors to oversee day-to-day operations and account management for all student organization accounts.  Because student org funding is considered external funding, the requirements and processes differ from University requirements and processes. Functions of this office are directly tied to rules and requirements that Student Activities implements for recognized student organizations.
