The GSC GSPO funding program is designed to empower GPSOs by providing a level of fiscal autonomy to those communities. It is intended to allow GPSOs to directly and positively impact their local communities and respond to the immediate communal needs of their memberships.
The GSC currently provides $500 budgets for the first 50 eligible GPSOs that register. Recognized GPSOs must meet the following requirements to be eligible for GPSO funding:
- It must be the Representative Body for students in a graduate or professional program/department which is the advocacy body for those students with those units.
- It must be advised by a faculty member in the organization's home unit (i.e., program, department, or college).
- It must be an organization whose membership is limited to graduate/professional students.
- It must send a representative to be a part of UK's Graduate Student Congress.
