How do I get Senate funding?
In order to request a special allocation from Student Senate, please contact the Finance Committee Chair at senate-finance@andrew.cmu.edu. The chair will send you information pertinent to your meeting with the committee. Please confirm that you will attend the meeting at the reserved date and notify the chair if you plan to cancel or change your reservation.
Any other information you need can be found at on the finance committee's page.
When meeting with the committee, you should come prepared and bring 6 copies of the following materials:
The committee will ask questions about your event and make a decision in closed meeting later that day. You should receive a decision about your special allocation request by Wednesday at midnight.
If the committee approves any portion of your special allocation, the committee will notify you to attend our Senate General Body Meeting. During the general body meeting, the Finance Committee Chair will present a motion summarizing your request to the Senate general body. The general body will ask you and the Finance Committee Chair pertinent questions about your event and then move on to discussion. Afterwards, the general body will vote on the motion. You are allowed to leave immediately after the vote.
