As a reminder, the due date for submitting your FY2021 Planning and Budget requests is today, May 1, 2020.

The FY21 planning and budgeting process began March 16. We continue to use the SharePoint form, which was further streamlined to simplify submissions this year — with the New Initiative Project Type being used to submit all initiatives/strategies/programs/projects, FFE, Small Projects, Perkins Requests, Tech Fee Requests. Users can access the form for submission of items for the FY21 planning and budgeting year.

To aid budget managers in submitting Existing Budget Increase/Decrease (budget maintenance) requests, the budget office emailed budget baseline worksheets to users in March. If you are a budget manager of an auxiliary unit and are making budget maintenance adjustments, you are required to attach the baseline worksheets to your forms prior to submission. See the directions pdf for more information.

Written directions and instructional videos have been created to assist users with form completion. These items and the link to the Planning & Budgeting SharePoint Form are posted to the FY2021 Planning & Budgeting link on the Finance Department’s SharePoint page.
