There are four ways in which groups are allocated funding:
1. Annual Allocation Process - process used to asked for a year's funding.  This takes place in fall of the academic year PRIOR to actual spending.
2. Carryover Process - process used to ask for the unspent money from your group's prior year budget.  This takes place as part of the Allocation request process in the fall in which you hope to keep the unspent funds from the prior year.
3. Line Item Budget Transfer - process used to ask for allocations to be shifted from one area of a group's budget (e.g. Travel) to another area of the same group's budget (e.g. Supplies).  This takes place at any time the committee is in session (September through April) with potential emergency meetings at other times throughout the year.
4. Contingency Requests - process used to ask for additional/separate funds for one-time or unexpected expenses. This takes place at any time the committee is in session (September through April) with potential emergency meetings at other times throughout the year.
All of the above requests are handled through the same request form, found in the forms section of uww.edu/connect.  This year's form is directly found at https://uww.presence.io/form/sufac-money-applications-carryovers-contingency-requests-and-transfers-ay23-24 .
