Financial Policies

The financial branch of SGA is composed of the Vice President for Financial Affairs, the Budget and Finance Committee (B&F) and the SGA Accountant. These parties work in conjunction with the Leadership Activities Office to maintain the flow of SGA accounts while upholding and executing the SGA financial policies and procedures. The duties of the financial branch include ensuring the continued financial success of SGA, providing assistance to those in need of financial policy and procedural explanation, ensuring that the SGA financial policies and procedures are upheld and revised when necessary and representing the financial interest of SGA and the 91°µÍø community in all matters.

The expenditure of all funds must follow the guidelines set forth by the SGA Constitution, financial policies and procedures, and ultimately, 91°µÍø financial policies.

It is the responsibility of all Student Event Planners, Club Leaders & Club Treasurers to be familiar with these policies and seek clarification when needed.

The Student Activity Fee is charged to all matriculated students, both full and part-time, and also non-matriculated students enrolled in 12 or more credits in a semester. The amount of the Student Activity Fee is voted upon annually by the 91°µÍø Board of Trustees and is billed through tuition payments.

Disciplinary Action Regarding Financial Matters

It is the role of the SGA Executive Committee to oversee the manner in which the officers of the clubs and organizations conduct themselves. Therefore, if an officer of a club or organization consistently breaks the SGA rules, they may be remo
