The ASSU rejected at least 80 annual grant applications for student organizations in a year with a record high total of requested funding. Club leaders and financial officers have reported difficulties in navigating this year’s application process and grant policies.
Of the 200 VSOs who applied for annual grant funding, only 29 VSOs are getting the full monetary amount they requested. Groups that received significant funding cuts include the Kappa Sigma fraternity, Stanford Lion Dance, Stanford Transfers Network, and the Stanford India Economic and Policy Club.
