After organizations submit an online application, they must attend a meeting with a GTSF member to receive feedback on their initial submission. They are then given until Wednesday, Oct. 9, to resubmit their application. Approximately 20 organizations will be invited to give a presentation to GTSF’s Board of Trustees on Sunday, Oct. 20. Those who are ultimately chosen to receive funding will be notified by Tuesday, Oct. 22.

The maximum amount that an organization can receive is 20% of GTSF’s total funds for allocation, likely between $4,000 and $6,000. The only restriction on the funds is that they cannot be used for giveaways, such as free food or T-shirts.

Individual students can also get involved with the foundation in a number of ways. GTSF has five different committees composed of Tech students: Allocations, Development, First-Year Leadership Initiative, Investments, and Marketing and Communications.

The Investments Committee provides a six-week mentorship program for students who want to learn about finance and investing while simultaneously improving the future of Georgia Tech. Interested students are welcome to attend the program's first meeting, which will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 10 at 6 p.m. in the Scheller College of Business Room 200. The Marketing and Allocations Committees will also hold a joint info session that same day at 7 p.m in the Alumni House.

Anyone with questions about committees or applications for funding is encouraged to contact info@gtsf.gatech.edu. Organizations looking for funding can follow along on Facebook, where GTSF will be posting updates throughout the entire funding process.
