Activity Grant-in-Aid

The Activity Grant-in-Aid Program was designed to reward students who have made positive contributions to the University through student organizations and leadership. Students who have been appointed or elected to an Executive Board position for the academic year are eligible to apply for this grant. These students must be full-time, matriculated undergraduates in good disciplinary and academic standing (GPA 2.5).

There is an application process to receive an activity grant-in-aid. This includes an online form, attending an information session and the submission of a co-curricular transcript. The process begins each year in April. Once a grant has been received, students must adhere to the following to maintain their grant for the year:

  1. Maintain status as a full-time, matriculated, undergraduate student in good disciplinary and academic standing (minimum 2.5 grade point average).  This will be verified each semester.
  2. Remain active for the duration of your grant in your executive board position(s).
  3. Maintain regular communication with Student Life liaisons to ensure that you
    are fulfilling your duties, attaining your goals, and contributing to the work of your organization(s). 
  4. Attending ONE (1) LEAD workshop per semester.
  5. Comply with all policies and procedures of St. John's University and the Division of Student Affairs.
  6. Further the mission of St. John's University in your work as a student leader and ensure that your organization contributes to the University community.
