Office of Finance
At its core, the purpose of the Finance Commission is to safeguard the student activity fee.
Some methods we have to ensure that the student activity fee is allocated responsibly includes: our annual budgeting process for student organizations and our special project fund to cover unique events that can benefit the NDSU community as a whole.
The Executive Commissioner of Finance Tier I is charged with overseeing and distributing the $4 million student activity fee to the various Tier I entities. The Executive Commissioner of Finance Tier II is charged with overseeing and distributing $500,000 to the various Tier II student organizations.
The Executive Commissioner of Finance Tier I chairs both the Finance Commission and the Fee Advisory Board.
The Executive Commissioner of Finance Tier II is tasked to work with Tier II student organizations for their funding questions, requests and reimbursement.
