The Personal Expense Fund is designed to support student engagement with BCSG-recognized club activities that require an out-of-pocket expense.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There are many club activities for which the cost exceeds what a club’s account can provide, including funding from other sources<\/a>. This results in personal expenses that all club members are expected to contribute. Students that are unable to cover this out-of-pocket expense are encouraged to apply for support from the Personal Expense Fund.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any student may apply for this funding. <\/strong>Please note that the Office of Campus Life recommends submitting this request a minimum of two weeks prior to the activity to ensure enough time for it to be reviewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
