Student Organization
Funding Portal
Student Government provides the Funding Portal for student organizations as a one-stop-shop for finding funding resources, grant applications, and fundraising opportunities at NC State and the local Raleigh area. Student organizations primarily receive funding from SG Appropriations, Student Senate Finance Committee Allocations, and the College Councils.
Student Government provides over $250,000 every year to student organizations through the SG Appropriations and Student Senate Finance Committee Allocations processes. These two funding resources are completely funded by student fees. Student organizations additionally apply for funding from the UNC Association of Student Governments and Graduate Student Association and fundraise with non-campus-affiliated businesses and organizations.

Student Government Appropriations
The Student Government Appropriations process is the main venue for Student Government to provide financial support for events and enrichment opportunities for students through Student Organizations on campus. Student Organizations have two opportunities every academic year to apply for funding, during the beginning of the fall semester and beginning of the spring semester.

The allocation process was instituted in an effort to ensure a fair process for all money allocation to club sports and to increase the overall accountability of clubs. The allocation year runs from RecFest to the end of the Spring Semester. Any use of allocated funds during the summer must be pre-approved by the Assistant Director/Coordinators. Each club will submit a budget proposal and deliver a budget presentation during the Spring semester for the following year’s allocation decision.
The Club Sports Council, Sports Programs Program Assistants, and Sports Programs professional staff will take the following criteria into consideration for allocating funds:
- Quality of budget proposal and presentation
- Compliance point totals
- Community service efforts
- Fundraising efforts
