Finance Office (ASA)

HUB-Robeson Center

Treasurer's Guide

WELCOME to the wonderful world of student organization finance!!!
 
ASSOCIATED STUDENT ACTIVITIES (ASA)
Room 240 HUB-Robeson Center, (865-1947)
 
   
The Office of Associated Student Activities was established as part of the University to aid the many recognized student organizations in keeping proper accounts of their financial activities. ASA offers many services; however, its primary functions are that of a banker, accountant, paymaster and advisor on fiscal matters. As an office of the University, ASA provides "integrity" to the financial affairs of recognized student organizations by providing a purchase order mechanism and a check writing service. In accordance with the Pennsylvania State University's policy on the financial affairs of recognized student organizations, all recognized student organizations are required to:
  • affiliate with ASA for banking and bookkeeping services.
  • submit their accounts to an annual audit performed by the Office of Finance and Operations.
  • conduct their financial affairs according to the written regulations of the ASA office.
 

The Associated Student Activities (ASA) Treasurer's Guide provides student organization treasurers with basic information regarding ASA fiscal policies and procedures. Please use this guide as a reference when managing the financial affairs of your organization.

 

Due to the varying complexities and uniqueness of the more than 900 recognized student organizations, this guide cannot possibly answer all questions for group officers. For this reason, I highly encourage all treasurers and other officers to bring their questions to the staff of ASA, Room 240, HUB-Robeson Center (865-1947). The office is open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday, except for University holidays. We will be glad to offer any assistance, referrals or advice that will help you better manage your student organization's affairs.

 
I look forward to meeting and working with you throughout the coming year.

Jill A. Leidy
Associate Director/Treasurer
