The Creighton Student Union will fund non student organizations on occasion. The event must be open to all Creighton University students, and it must involve students in the planning of the activity. Examples of non student organization events that CSU has funded in the past are DoIT's Gamefest and the Career Center's Etiquette Speaker and Dinner.

Non Student Organization Funding Policy and Procedures
The funding process begins when the organization fills out a Funding Request Form. This form, along with the other required materials outlined on the form, must be turned into the Vice President for Finance of CSU no later than 15 university business days prior to the scheduled event. The organization will then present its request to the Appropriations Committee for approval. Once the Appropriations Committee has made an allocation, the VP for Finance presents the request to the Board of Representatives. If the Representatives approve the request, the VP for Finance informs the organization.
Non student organizations are funded through a reimbursement process. At the conclusion of the event the organization must turn in an Activity Report Form no later than 25 university business days after the event's scheduled date. After the Activity Report Form is examined by the VP for Finance, the organization will receive the reimbursement. This funding process is explained in greater detail in the Non Student Organization Funding section of CSU's Policies and Procedures.
Non student organizations who receive funding from CSU must place the "Funded by CSU" or "Funded in part by CSU" logo on all of their posters, flyers, programs, etc. advertising the event. There are several other guidelines regarding the use of CSU funds that must be followed that are outlined in section B of the Non Student Organization Funding section of CSU's Policies and Procedures.
Note: Failure to follow CSU's guidelines on use of funds may affect present or future allocations for individual non-student organizations.
