What is AFAC?
Provides available funds held in Student Engagement for disbursement to SGA approved student clubs & organizations.
If funds are available, AFAC will consider all appropriate requests that meet the guidelines for funding.
AFAC does not fund everything and anything. As there is limited funding available in the Student Engagement budget for clubs and organizations – funds are allocated where the widest reach may occur.
AFAC encourages clubs and organizations to collaborate as much as possible so that they may share resources and reach as many members of the UC community as possible.
Please review the AFAC Guidelinesbefore submitting AFAC requests for your club or organization. Make sure that your requests follow all necessary requirements.
Club and organization funding is allocated at the discretion of SGA during meetings throughout the semester.
