BUDGET AND ASSESSMENT APPLICATION PROCESS

The budget and assessment application period is now closed for the FY2024/2025 for existing IRA Programs and award notices have been email to IRA Program Coordinators.  The committee will not be accepting applications for new IRA Programs for FY2024/2025.

EXISTING PROGRAMS

The application period is now closed for existing annually funded programs for the 2024-2025 academic year.

PROCESS FOR EXISTING PROGRAMS

1. The existing annually funded program application and assessment process typically opens in late-Fall semester with application due at the beginning of the Spring semester.

2. When the application period is open, program coordinators should review the criteria and Budget and Assessment Application questions and requirements prior to beginning the online application process.
3. When the application period is open, submit your Budget and Assessment Application through Qualtrics by the established deadline.
4. Applications will be reviewed during the Spring semester and funding recommendations will be finalized by the end of the Spring semester.
5. Once funding recommendations are finalized and approved by the President, programs will be notified of their funding allocations via letter from the committee.

NEW PROGRAMS

The committee will not be accepting new program requests for the 2024-2025 academic year. 

ROLL FORWARD REQUESTS

The application period is now open for roll forward requests from the prior year’s funds.  In order to be considered for funding, an application must be submitted through Qualtrics at IRA 2023-2024 Roll Forward Request Survey by: September 30, 2024.

IRA funds are intended to be utilized during the academic year in which they are awarded and annually funded IRA programs are not intended to build reserves or carry forward funds from one fiscal year to another unless there is a compelling reason to do so.  Therefore, any remaining or unspent IRA funds from Academic Year 2023-2024 were swept in mid-August prior to new funds being added.

If there is a compelling reason to request to carry forward funding from Academic Year 2023-2024, please complete the Qualtrics survey: IRA 2023-2024 Roll Forward Request Survey

The Student Fee Advisory Committee will review the roll forward requests and, if approved, the program will be notified and the approved funding amount will be restored to the program RQ fund.
