GW Engage and Financial Resources

GW Engage

GW Engage is where organization members, events, forms, money, and other resources are located. There are many pages and features that are available on Engage. You can send messages to your entire organization, or add members to your organization page. There is a calendar where you can update events and a place to post messages. Elections can be run through Engage along with other resources. The treasurer tab is most important for finances. There is one page for budgets and one page for revenue funds. The budgets page is where you can see how much money the SGA has allocated to you. The revenue funds page is where all of the money that belongs to your organization is stored. When depositing and withdrawing money, this is done with your revenue account.

Revenue Funds vs. Budgets

Within your Organization’s Treasury page on Engage, there are two types of financial accounts you can view: Revenue Funds and Budgets. Revenue Funds are funds that your organization has collected itself, either from collecting dues or holding fundraisers. Budgets are the money you request from the Student Association, which can either be a budget requested at the end of the year for the next fiscal year, or a co-sponsorship(s) that you submit throughout the year.

How to Request a Co-Sponsorship

What is a co-sponsorship?

A Co-Sponsorship is a funding request for an on-campus event open to all GW students. Once a Co-Sponsorship request is submitted, it is then considered by the Student Association Finance committee and they will allocate money to your organization based on a number of factors about your event.

 

My organization wants to ask for a Co-Sponsorship. How do we do that?

Step 1: Login to Engage, then go to the “Manage” tab and select your organization
Step 2: Select "Finance" from the sidebar menu.
Step 3: Create a new budget by selecting "CREATE NEW REQUEST"
Step 4: Under the Create New Request item tab, select "Create Budget Request"
Step 5: From there, fill out the request information step by step and complete the necessary documentation.
Step 6: Review your request and then submit.

Provide as much detail as possible in Co-Sponsorship requests. Once you submit the request, you should expect to get a decision from the Finance committee within two weeks. If you do not receive a response within two weeks, it is recommended that you reach out to the Student Association Finance Committee at [email protected]. You can find more information on Co-Sponsorship requests here. 

Things the Student Association looks for in a Co-Sponsorship Request

The Student Association looks for specific details when allocating money for Co-Sponsorship requests. Co-Sponsorships are generally not granted for gifts or food. Events open to the entire GW community will often receive more funding. This can be difficult for SEAS events. However, you can portray events as being more inclusive by saying “this event is for anyone who wants to learn more about this field,” or “everyone in the GW community is welcome at our event.” The Student Association also looks for items that are going to be reused in the future, like bins for storage or reusable hardware for workshops.

SEAS Funding for Undergraduate Students and Organizations

SEAS students and student organizations are able to request money directly from the SEAS Office of Undergraduate Studies. The two request forms can be found under the Student Organization Resources section below - Funding Requests dropdown menu.

Shenkman Funding

SEAS Career Services may provide funding to SEAS students working an unpaid internship or other career development and innovation opportunities. Student recipients receive funding through the Shenkman Fund that can be used to help reimburse payment for professional development opportunities that may be considered cost-prohibitive.
