Student Organization Funding Agency
The Student Organization Funding Agency (SOFA) is a committee of students that meets weekly to allocate funds to student organizations for various projects. SOFA assists in providing educational opportunities to recognized student organizations in obtaining their goals and objectives through support, guidance, and oversight. A student organization may come to SOFA with funding requests for travel, programming, equipment or operations.
Members of SOFA are given the task of allocating over $100,000 in funds to student organizations throughout the year. Students review and calculate the funding required to meet the needs of the requesting organization. SOFA provided funding to over 85 different student organizations during the 2010-2011 academic school year.
