Each year, GPSA provides funding towards events organized by graduate students which seek to improve educational, professional and social life at UC San Diego. Funds are appropriated based on number of graduate students attendees ($3-$7/students/event) and it can range up to $2000/year for each student organization or department. The funding range is subjected to change and approval of the Finance Committee of each year. Any graduate student in good standing may apply and funding will be awarded to the events that are approved by the GPSA Finance Committee and Council of Representatives. Funding requests will be evaluated based on their history and contribution to a rich and varied extracurricular lifestyle at UCSD.
