About the Committee

The Budget Committee is responsible for granting funding to student clubs and organizations on the Rose Hill campus, based on the rules and guidelines outlined in the Student Handbook. The committee consists of 12-14 non-USG members, 2-4 USG members, and a non-voting Chair. The committee meets weekly to consider clubs’ appeals for funds. In order for an appeal to be viewed at a Wednesday budget meeting it must be submitted by 5:00pm on Tuesday.

The Budget Committee meets at 2:30PM EST on Wednesdays  and once a month on SLC days at 4:30 PM – 6:00 PM EST in McShane 118.

These meetings are open for viewing for any member of the student body. Questions? Email your liaison, who can be found under the Club Liaison List. You can also reach us through usgbudgetrh@fordham.edu or through Instagram at fordhambudget.
