Educational Auxiliary Funds

The Educational Auxiliary Funds encompass the university’s educational programmatic activity which includes continuing education for non-state funded, self-supporting college credit courses or programs, non-credit professional development courses or programs designed to upgrade existing technical or professional skills, and courses that are provided primarily for personal enrichment or as a public service to the community. Expenditures must support the primary mission of the auxiliary. The revenue collected is used to support the mission of the university compliant with relevant state/UF statutes and regulations.
