Re:           GA and UGS Allocations

Your department's GA allocation for the 12-month period, July 1, 2002 - June 30, 2003, is now available on the web. Please go to the A&S Business Office Website to view your GA allocation for FY'03.

Allocation Details

GA Allocations

The GA allocation to the College is the same as last year's, including the across-the-board 2% increase that was given on January 1, 2002. Some departments will see shifts between the Graduate Division funding (-1910) and the College funding (-1900).

Please be scrupulously careful to keep your GA allocation budget completely encumbered. The Division of Research and Advanced Studies has frozen unused portions of that budget in the past. We cannot afford to have any GA money flowing out of A&S. If a situation arises where you cannot sensibly assign your GA funds or if you anticipate the possibility of GA(s) leaving during winter or spring quarter, contact the college business office (556-5845), and arrangements will be made to secure the funds within the college. The department can regain the funds released to the college if the need arises later in the fiscal year. The college will review the departmental GA accounts in early winter to ascertain the availability of uncommitted funds.

UGS Allocations

The UGS allocation is not available at this time, but should be soon. In any event, there will be sufficient UGS funds to cover the UGS's which accompany the GA allocations. DO NOT SEND OUT ANY FURTHER UGS-ONLY AWARDS UNTIL THE UGS ALLOCATIONS ARE DISTRIBUTED.

Co-Pay Policy

Only students with stipends are to be awarded a 100% UGS. All other students must generate a 10% co-pay.

No awards should commit funds beyond spring quarter 2002-03 (03S). Under no circumstances can UGS money be used to cover the quarterly ITIE fee.
