Writing an application

Write an introduction which answers at least the following questions:

• Who is organizing and doing the accounting?
• Who benefits (number of persons, relation to VSETH)?
• When will the project take place (preparation, execution, possible recapitulation)?
• Why is the project worth supporting (goals, uniqueness,...)?

As you are requesting financial support, also include

• Budget: Submit detailed revenues and expenses. If available, also include the accounts of previous/similar projects.
• Further benefactors: List all other requested sources of funding (departments, ETH-offices, companies, student associations, committees, cultural foundations etc.) and the state of those requests.
• Requested amount: What amount of money (and as a flat amount or deficit guarantee) is being requested?

The prospects for an application can depend to a large extent on whether you have actively pursued other funding sources, as far as is reasonable for your project.
