The Center for Student Involvement (CSI) MUST review and approve ALL event budgets BEFORE they are submitted to the Cultural Events Board (CEB). The “CSI Budget Review Deadline” is a mandatory budget review deadline and organizations must submit their event budget through BuffConnect by this date. CSI staff liaisons will review the budget and work with the organization if there is any follow-up needed before the 1st Reading.
Event space must be confirmed before budgets can be approved.
Review the CEB Bylaws for information about funding requests, your board members, and other rules for your student organization!
