The governments representing each professional and graduate school receive funding from CSU through a rebate process. After CSU is allocated its portion of the student fees by the university, the VP for Finance of CSU returns to each government 82% of its students' fees.

Professional and Graduate School Funding Policy and Procedures
At the first cabinet meeting of the year, professional schools are required to submit a Budget Submission Form. The End of Semester Report is due after both the fall and spring semesters. The End of Semester Report for professional school governments is due at the last scheduled Cabinet meeting in the fall and the second Friday in June in the spring.
The Professional and Graduate School Government Funding section of CSU's Policies and Procedures explains the entire funding process in detail.
The Creighton Students Union provides funding to all college and school governments, professional, graduate and undergraduate. The complete list is as follows:
- Graduate School (GSG)
- Creighton Medical School Government (CMSG)
- Pharmacy & Health Professions Student Government (PHPSG)
- Dental Student Union (DSU)
- Student Bar Association (SBA)
- Arts & Sciences Student Senate
- College of Business Congress
- Nursing Senate
The funds allocated by CSU assist the governments in programming for their students. These events include senior banquets, admissions seminars, and study breaks.
The method of funding professional school governments is different than the method of funding undergraduate governments. The professional and graduate school governments operate on a rebate system in which 82% of the student fees they pay in are returned to them, as detailed above. The undergraduate college and school governments submit budgets, as explained on their funding page.
