A Step by Step Guide to Starting a Club

New student organizations, student organizations whose recognition has lapsed, or groups not listed on the Recognized Student Organization List need to complete the formal university recognition process.

If you are interested in starting a student organization, or restarting a previously lapsed student organization, please follow these steps:

1. Review the Student Organization Policies document for club recognition
2. Ensure that you have the minimum required 5 interested members for your club
3. Identify a faculty or staff member who is willing to serve as a your official club advisor
4. Develop a club constitution using the Model Constitution
5. Register for OrgSync workshop. Workshop dates will be announced in August.

Once your club meets these minimum requirements, you will be granted recognition for the semester. Recognition must be renewed each semester in order for your club to stay active.
