- Make sure that your idea meets one or more of the 19 different areas that the funding can be spent on, which you can find HERE.
- Make sure that your proposal isn’t already one being completed by CSU or other projects underway, which you can find details HERE.
- Provide evidence that your proposed project is needed by other students and is a priority.
