OA actually stands for Organizational Allocation rather than Open Access, and that line is specifically for registered clubs and orgs at the Flagstaff Mountain campus to receive up to $500.00 for events, etc. :) The Senate Bill line is open to all Flagstaff Mountain students, in conjunction with a registered club, or individually for funding above $500.00.
