STUDENT ACTIVITY
FEE
Each undergraduate student that enrolls
for more than six semester hours is required to pay a student activity fee of
$95 per semester. These funds are managed by the Director of Student Life
& Housing, under the authority of the Vice President for
Student Affairs.
The purpose of the student activity fee is
to provide financial support for extra-curricular events and programs at the
University of West Alabama and to facilitate the improvement of campus life at
the University.
Approximately twenty-five
percent of the funds collected through the student
activity fee are allocated to the Campus Activities Board. The
Campus Activities Board (CAB) uses its funding to present a variety of
social activities and free entertainment for students each
semester.
Twenty percent of the student
activity fee funds are allocated to the Student Government Association
(SGA). The
SGA, in turn,
distributes funds to recognized student organizations and allocates funds for special projects that enhance the campus
environment.
The remaining student activity fee funds are used to support campus recreation,
intramural sports, fraternity life, sorority life, leadership development activities,
special events and
cultural programming.
