Student Fees at Work

The Student Activity Fee and the Student Facility fee are used to fund various events and projects in order to improve upon the students' experience on campus.  The Student Activity Fee is used for activities and programs on campus.  The Student Facility fee is used to fund improvements and expansion of non-academic, recreation, and multi-use spaces for students.

What is the Student Activity Fee?

The purpose of the Student Activity Fee (SAF) is to improve the overall quality of the campus experience from the student’s perspective by increasing the opportunities for student involvement in the out-of-class experience. The student activity fee at Penn State New Kensington has traditionally supported a myriad of student activities and programs, increased our recreational opportunities, and improved student facilities on campus. The campus Student Activity Fee committee governs the allocation and use of SAF monies at Penn State New Kensington. This committee highly encourages student clubs and organizations to submit proposals for events and programs that support the mission of their individual organizations as well as enhance campus life for all students. The Student Activity Fee Handbook provides more in-depth information on this fee.

SAF Meeting Dates

All meetings take place at 12:10 p.m. via Zoom. Please email Paula Dove at [email protected] for a Zoom invite link.
