Helpful Tips


These tips are intended to make your experience with SORF more productive, efficient and enjoyable.

  • Make sure all events and activities include specific dates and locations. Research your estimated expenses and be as accurate as possible.
  • Get your application in on time (all late applications, even by five minutes, will not be considered until the following funding period).
  • If a SORF Board member contacts you via phone or email, please respond. If the Board has unanswered questions about your application, your organization may not receive funding.
  • Make sure your requests are for specific activities and events (SORF funds activities and events—not organizations—and will generally not fund items such as food, computers, etc.).
  • Do not request funding for purely social events (e.g., a pizza party for your club). Follow directions on the application and other forms (e.g., fill in all applicable areas, etc.).
  • Ask questions before completing and submitting your application.
  • Do not request funds to support activities which are not open and free to UIUC students, or which will raise money for your or any other organization.
  • If requesting permanent equipment, tell us where it will be stored (i.e., university property).
  • READ and FOLLOW the SORF Guidelines and Restrictions before you apply, before you spend money, and before you submit an expenditure request.
