Student Organization Support Fund
The Student Organization Support Fund (SOSF) was established by the Dean’s office of the Andrew J. Anagnost College of Engineering and Computer Science (ACECS) to provide financial resources to the college’s Student Organizations (SO)s as a last resort to help cover a budget shortfall after all fundraising efforts have been exhausted. The SOSF is NOT intended to fund fully any application submitted.
The funds for the SOSF are provided through philanthropic contributions by alumni and friends of the Anagnost College of Engineering and Computer Science, therefore, they are limited. All applications will be reviewed on a first come first served basis, and subject to funds availability.
