Student Activity Fee Allocation (SAFA)

The UCA Student Government Association (SGA) constitution and by-laws define two avenues for groups to obtain funding from the SGA. The first path is to go through the SAFA funding procedure each Spring. SAFA funds allocated during the spring SAFA proceedings are available to groups beginning the next academic year. The second path to obtain SAFA funds is through Emergency SAFA funding. Emergency SAFA funding is available during the academic year to new RSO's or for groups that have discovered emergencies needs. Either way the SGA will fund your organization so that students may take advantage of learning and/or recreational pursuits that are not available through the University.
