<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Treasurers and Signatories of Student Organizations,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Student Activities Office has recently received a large number of RFPs which we have been unable to process. The cause is that they are, in one way or another, incomplete. The top three reasons why RFPs are delayed are listed below,
in no particular order. Please review any outstanding RFPs you have submitted on behalf of your organization to determine if any are delayed and take the necessary steps to rectify this situation. Please use the SAO website (<a href="http://studentlife.mit.edu/sao/finance">http://studentlife.mit.edu/sao/finance</a>)
as a resource and email <a href="mailto:funds@mit.edu">funds@mit.edu</a> to seek assistance. When emailing
<a href="mailto:funds@mit.edu">funds@mit.edu</a>, please reference the cost object and RFP number in question.<o:p></o:p></p>
