FY24 planning and budgeting process begins today

The FY24 planning and budgeting process starts today, March 1. We will continue to use the SharePoint form.

Users can access the form beginning today for submission of items for the FY24 planning and budgeting year. Users are asked to submit their items between March 1-29. Access to the form will close at the end of the day Wednesday, March 29.

To aid budget managers in submitting Existing Budget Increase/Decrease (budget maintenance) Requests, the  budget office will email budget baseline worksheets to users the week of March 13. Please wait to submit Existing Budget Increase/Decrease Requests until you have received these worksheets. 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.

As a reminder, do not submit Perkins Grant requests through the Planning & Budgeting Form. Dr. Jason Dockter and Dr. Joel Dykstra are coordinating all Perkins Grant requests in preparation for submitting the grant application. All requests should be directed to them for consideration. Please contact Jason or Joel with questions or for more information.

New this year — we have added a component option for “Marketing/PRM-related item” so users can readily indicate this when submitting their initiative.

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 FY2024 Planning & Budgeting link on the Finance Department’s SharePoint page and available for users beginning today.
