Grant Applications

Every year ISYY awards general grants to student associations. The purpose of the general grant is to financially secure the functioning of the association. Copying quotas (100 black and white prints) are automatically granted to all student associations as they apply for the general grant. 

The purpose of the project grant is to financially support Student Association or Campus Association projects. The project grant should be used to cover project costs, but not to bring financial profit to the association in question.

ISYY clubs can apply for club grants to cover project or material costs for the club. 

Project grants and club grants are applicable throughout the year. 

The application period for the general grants will be advertised via the ISYY communication channels. For more information about the grants, contact the membership services specialist in Joensuu or the organisational affairs specialist in Kuopio.
