Student activity fees are used by the Division of Student Affairs or registered student organizations to provide recreational, entertaining, educational or culturally enriching programs or services that do not solely support academic programs. This includes student and professional staff members in the Office of Student Involvement. Programs, services and staff positions must directly benefit or serve the GGC student body, and events and services must be free and open to all GGC students. This does not include ordinary or operational expenses of denominational or sectarian religious activities, partisan political activities, social fraternities and sororities, nor charitable causes or contributions. Student activity fees cannot be used for the direct benefit of faculty, staff or community members or for fundraisers, benefits or registered student organization members-only field trips or events.
The athletic fee supports the operation of intercollegiate athletics including facilities, operations and the issuance of a bond package.
The health fee is used to offset costs associated with the physical and emotional health needs of students including basic first aid, health-related education, counseling and disability services.
The health and wellness fee is used to support the bond repayment of the Wellness and Recreation Center. Additionally, the fee supports procurement, staffing, maintenance, programming, facilities and equipment purchases related to the Wellness and Recreation Center.

The parking fee provides funding for the newly constructed parking deck, residential surface parking, future parking decks and maintenance of all parking.

These permits are valid in designated student spaces on a first come/first served basis.
The institutional fee is determined by the Board of Regents and goes towards offsetting the gap between the cost of instruction, what the state budgets and what tuition will not cover.
The student center fee is used by the Division of Student Affairs to fund the design and construction of the GGC Student Center as well as the continued bond repayment. The student center fee will also be used for operational costs associated with the building that benefit and serve GGC students. These costs include necessary equipment and furniture, replacement of equipment and furniture, professional and student staff support, and other Student Center services.
