What is CAFC?
The purpose of the Campus Allocation Funding Committee (CAFC) is to, through a fair and viewpoint neutral process, prepare the annual budget bill for the Activity and Service Recommendation Committee.
This annual budget consists of 12 Student Success Departments and 250+ student organizations. These entities are funded through the Activity and Service (A&S) fee.
This fee is paid by every Tampa student as a $7.00 flat fee and $12.08 per credit hour, per semester. The A&S fee supports student governing boards and programs and student organizations to improve services directly related to student activities.
These services include but are not limited to: the ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ Homecoming Concert, ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ Recreation and Wellness, the Marshall Student Center and ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ Week of Welcome.
Student Government, through the annual and interim process, allocate these departments and student organizations based off standards created by Student Government in accordance with ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ Statute 1009.24.
CAFC is comprised of 6 ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ student voting members, 2 alternate ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ student members, 1 ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ student non-voting member, and 3 ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ non-voting staff members. You can refer to Student Government’s Statutes on BullsConnect to see a more detailed list of these members and their roles.
