Student groups have gotten less funding in recent semesters from the UA Finance Board, even as the UA as been setting aside more money for student groups. Usually, the Finance Board is expected to allocate 15 percent more than the UA gives it, because not every cent handed out is actually spent by student groups. This year, the Finance Board gave out $16,000 less than the UA budgeted for it.
