What We Do
Supporting the financial health of student life
From semester allocations to grant reviews, the Finance Team works year-round to ensure every student organization has the resources it needs to thrive.
Allocate Funding
Each semester, the Finance Team reviews budget requests from registered student organizations and allocates funding fairly based on need, programming scope, and HUA guidelines.
Review Grants
Organizations may apply for supplemental grant funding throughout the year. Our committee reviews each application, considering impact, feasibility, and alignment with HUA's mission.
Financial Transparency
All budget allocations and expenditures are published publicly. We believe accountability to the student body is fundamental to our work.
Our Process
How funding works
A transparent, structured process from application to decision.
Organization Applies

Receipts Submitted & Excess Returned
