FAQs
Am I required to complete Red Brick Rewards?
If you are a registered student organization (not an affiliated organization, club sport, fraternity or sorority, etc.), then yes, you must complete a Regional Red Brick Rewards each semester. If you are an affiliated organization that wishes to apply for RSG Funding, you also must complete Regional Red Brick Rewards.
Am I required to participate in the president/treasurer training?
Yes, as there are many important topics covered about RSG Funding, event planning and many other topics including changes to policies, especially with the impact of COVID on our programming processes.
How can I check our status in Red Brick Rewards?
Once you are enrolled in the Paths for RRBR on the Hub as an entity account, you will be able to check your status at any time through that portal.
Our HUB Path says we do not have a certain requirement, but we do. Why?
First, make sure you have submitted all of the correct items to the Path for RRBR on the Hub. (Also, make sure you are logged in as your entity account!) If you've submitted something and it still does not show up, it may not have been checked through our office. Please give us up to 3 weeks in reviewing submissions due to high volume.
My org doesn't get RSG Funding. Do we need to do the Buyway training?
If your organization has a financial account on campus, then your treasurer must complete Buyway training. If you have no financial account on campus (Not sure? Check on the Hub by visiting Manage Org, then finance, then accounts), you may ask for an exception. If you have an account, you must complete this requirement.
