The Primary and Supplemental Funding Sources are outlined in the Undergraduate Student Assembly Charter (all funding is from the Student Assembly/Student Activity Fee and allocated to the byline student organization).
Primary Funding Sources
A primary funding board byline organization (composed of students partnering with a university advisor) serves as a primary funding source and governing body for a specific category of student organizations. Your funding source funds only expenses related to the organization's purpose as specified in its yearly registration. The funding source partners with Campus Activities in determining specific requirements to enable the organizations to function on campus. Requirements can be found here.

Supplementary Funding Sources
A supplementary funding board byline organization (comprised of students partnering with a university advisor) serves as an additional funding source and programming body for qualifying student organizations and/or organizations that may fit within their mission—the funding source partners with Campus Activities in determining specific requirements to enable organizations to function on campus.
A departmental byline is an organization (comprised of students and/or staff) that is affiliated with a university department or unit. The department or unit manages the allocated SAF funds for a specific operational reason that directly and positively impacts the undergraduate student population—the byline partners with Campus Activities to determine specific requirements to enable the organizations to function on campus.
Some of the below funding sources may not be associated with the SAF and may come directly from a department or unit.
