Objectives

The Provost’s Enhancement Fund for Student Activities (PEFSA) is held by the Office of the Provost and Vice President Academic as discretionary financial support for projects that enhance the quality of the student experiences at Brock.

Application process

Part-time and full-time undergraduate or graduate students may apply to the Provost’s Enhancement Fund for Student Activities (PEFSA) to request supplemental financial support for eligible student activities. Funding is available to a student once per fiscal year and only after the student receives approved funding from their faculty and/or program, a related administrative department, etc.

To be considered, students must complete an application form, attaching a detailed budget and any endorsements or recommendations from their faculty/professor that supports their PEFSA funding request. The application materials will be considered/reviewed, and applicants will be informed of the outcome. If the request is approved, the applicant will be notified of the funding amount that they can receive, up to a maximum of $500. Funding is provided only after the student activity has taken place and all original receipts have been submitted and verified.

Undergraduate students should submit their PEFSA application materials to the Office of the Associate Vice-President, Students, in Thistle 222, or email [email protected] for funding consideration.

Graduate students should submit their PEFSA application materials through their graduate program to be considered.
