Round 2 of the 2026 SSAF Grant Applications are now open.

Grant Applications will close Midnight, 03/06/2026. Grant distribution for Trimester 2 will occur in the same fortnight. 


SSAF Briefing Session 

A SSAF Briefing session will be held to clarify requirements and limitations regarding SSAF expenditure.

This session is open to all clubs and societies, regardless of affiliation status or grant application (clubs who have already completed their Round 1 Grant Application are more than welcome to attend). 

This session will cover:

  • An explanation of SSAF Requirements and Limitations (for Clubs as well as JCUSA)
  • Common issues identified in grant applications and acquittals 
  • Expectations around reporting and compliance 
  • An opportunity to ask questions & seek feedback directly 

The sesion is planned to take place on Wednesday 27/05/2026 through an online format to allow clubs from all campuses to attend. 

Further details & invitations will be communicated closer to the date. This session will be hosted by the JCUSA President with support of the Clubs and Societies Committee. 


Event Reporting Requirement 

As part of receiving SSAF Grant Funding from JCUSA, all SSAF-funded events hosted by clubs will be subject to a post-event reporting requirement.

The post event report (attached below) must be submitted within 7 days of each SSAF-funded event. Note that this reporting is only required for any events utilising SSAF-funding, and does not apply to events funded through other means. 

This report is a mandatory component of the acquittal process and must be completed promptly and comprehensively by all clubs where required.
