Active registered student organizations that are in good standing and have passed the RSO 101 quiz during the 2025-26 academic year are eligible to apply for funding through the Student Experience Center. This funding will be available for the entire academic year. The RSO 101 presentation will be helpful in completing the quiz and working on your funding application. Funding applications will be accepted beginning July 1, 2025. Funding will be allotted monthly on a first-come basis. Registered Student Organizations may submit more than one funding application, but additional funding will not be allotted if previously allotted funding has not been exhausted or if the organization has not complied with RSO guidelines and policies. Student organizations that are associated with outside sources of University funding are not eligible for RSO funding. All funding applications must be completed through Trojan Engage! If you have any issues or questions, please reach out to the Student Experience Center at 501-916-3308 or [email protected]. We are here to help!
