Welcome Back GSOs!
We hope you have had a relaxing and safe winter break! We hope your organization is excited for the Spring 2022 semester as the GSA is here and ready to support you. We have a few reminders for GSOs as we start the semester, so please ensure that you are familiar with the below policies:
The Grants Review Panel (GRP) has changed the submission deadline for requesting funds. You must submit your request at least 1 month prior to the event occurring. Submitting a request less than a month before an event will severely affect your organization’s ability to receive the requested funds.
Space is still severely limited on-campus. If you are planning on having an event or meeting on-campus, please request the space weeks ahead of time. Events and Conference Services cannot guarantee space, but submitting weeks in advance will better your chances of reserving the space
Please have an officer of your GSO fill out the survey linked here. Please fill out one survey per GSO. Completing this survey will enter your GSO into a chance of winning a 50$ bookstore gift card.
If you have any questions or concerns about these updates, please reach out to the GSA (gsa@umbc.edu)
