This table does not show Slope Media Group, an organization that received byline funding in 2018-2020 cycle and did not apply for byline funding for 2020-2022 cycle. The amount allocated for SAFC reflects the rounding up necessary to make the fee an integer.

Per President Pollack's response to SA R25: Recommendation for the Student Activity Fee for 2020-2022 (2019-2020 term), the student activity fee will increase to $274 for the 2020-2021 academic year, and to $309 for the 2021-2022 academic year.

*The minimum required funding to be a byline organization is $0.50 per student per year. In fall 2020, we are allowing the minimum to be waived due to these unforeseen circumstances.
