Request Contingency Funds

1. Complete the Contingency Request form on Presence for your contingency to be heard in front of the Senate during the weekly Thelmo meetings. They happen every Wednesday at 7:00pm in the Hannon Room in the Student Center 

2. Present your Contingency Request in front of the Senate discussing your club/organization, the detailed budget, purpose of the request, and any other additional information. All materials needed should be submitted to the elected VPSA no later than the Tuesday before at noon. 

3. If approved, you will receive an email from the SLUSAF Central Treasurer that will explain how to access the requested funds. 

4. The amount awarded along with the budget code will be clearly stated. The bulleted points below outline the different options available to you to access the funds. 

A. Check requests: You can pay all expenses out of pocket, then submit all pertinent receipts, invoices, or any other form of expense verification with a check request form. If multiple people are being reimbursed, each individual needs a separate check request form, which can be found at the Student Info Desk located on the second floor of the Sullivan Student Center. Please drop off completed check request forms in the SLUSAF inbox, also located at the Info Desk. The Business Office issues checks every Friday. Please expect to receive your reimbursement within one to two weeks after submitting. 

B. Purchasing Card: The second option available to you is the use of a purchasing card. The purchasing card request forms are located at the Student Info Desk. Please fill out the form as completely as possible and drop it off in the SLUSAF inbox. The SLUSAF treasurer will then approve the form and send you a confirmation email. Once you receive the email, the Student Info Desk will issue you a card. Cards can only be checked out for 48 hours.
