Guidelines for Individual Funding Requests
In
general,
you,
as
a
person
requesting
individual
funding,
will
not
be
required
to
attend
MEF
funding
council
meetings;
however,
the
MEF
Director
may
ask
you
to
attend
under
certain
circumstances.
One
example
of
such
circumstances
would
be
that
many
individual
funding
projects
were
proposed
to
MEF;
hence,
the
funding
council
may
need
additional
information
to
help
them
select
which
projects
to
fund.
If
you
are
asked
to
attend
a
MEF
funding
council
meeting,
you
should
be
prepared
to
describe
your
project
to
the
council
and
to
answer
any
questions
raised
by
council
members.
Important Notes
- All submissions must be accompanied by a formal estimate of cost.
- MEF does not guarantee funding. Requests for Funding are approved with a variety of factors in mind, such as the amount of funding available for a given term and the total number of requests made.
- If your project receives funding from MEF, a series of “Accountability Guidelines” must be fulfilled. These guidelines will be explained after funding is granted.
- If your project receives funding from MEF, it must be completed within one year of funding approval or before graduation, whichever is earlier.
- MEF reserves the right to defer any submission to the following academic term, due to time constraints.
-
Funding can only be granted up to $750 per academic year (September through August) by default, and funding can be received only once per academic term.
If you require assistance with filling in this form, contact the Executive Director.
