Organization Registration

  DIVAS Mentoring 

The registration application is necessary to complete for all student organizations. This application will give the Student Leadership & Development area information on who are the officers in each organization, constitution and bylaws, and advisor acknowledgment for each organization. We also are able to determine who completed each step for each organization.

Registered Student Organizations (RSOs) enhance a student’s education by providing additional opportunities beyond the curriculum for personal development and growth. Furthermore, the University and the community benefit from the variety of services and activities provided by undergraduate organizations. The University believes that students should be encouraged to participate in organizations that are open to all members of the community and whose activities do not interfere with the policies or programs of the University or with the rights of other members of the community.

To that end, the Office of Student Engagement helps students develop organizations and plan events, provides financial advice and assistance, clarifies University policies and procedures, and authorizes the use of University resources and facilities.

RSOs are bound by the same regulations within the Student Code of Conduct that apply to individual students.

How to Register Your Organization

All organizations must complete their registration annually in order to be recognized by the University as a registered student organization (RSO). Failure to renew  registration by the deadline, will result in the organization being placed on "inactive status".  This status will prevent the student leaders from having access to request funds, reserving room spaces, hosting events or participating in the student involvement fair.  If your organization has not registered for the upcoming year, please contact RSO@ASURAMS.EDU today!

Registration must be completed by the INCOMING president who will hold their position in the new academic year.

Registration will not be considered complete until the Organization Constitution, an Advisor Agreement form and Roster are on file with Student Engagement.

 You will find find key registration links below. 

All organizations must have an advisor. Primary advisors must be full-time faculty or staff members here at the university. Advisory councils are encouraged.

How To Start A Student Organization


Can't Find It? Then, Found it!!

If you are unable to find a student organization to join you are more than welcome to start one of your own! That’s the sort of freedom that comes with an awesome campus community that offers an individualized experience.  Becoming a recognized student organization comes with many rights and privileges including but not limited to:

  • Access to resources 
  • Use of University facility space
  • Space at the Involvement Fair
  • Rights to request use of the student fee

 

All throughout the year, the Office of Student Engagement is available to help any student or group of students brainstorm a new club or organization on campus. 

 

To be established for the Fall the deadline is March 31 and for Spring the deadline is October 31. If you have an idea for a club or organization you would like to see on campus, simply send an e-mail, and we can get you started with establishing something new and exciting on campus!

Starting An RSO Application 

 

Step 1: Attend the new organization information session for an in-depth presentation on the steps to start a student organization.

Step 2: Complete the application for starting a new registered student organization

OR you can use the information learned at the workshop to ADOPT a previously existing group. To ADOPT a previously existing group, simply means to revitalize a student organization that has not been active in quite some time. To learn more about RSO Adoption attend one our sessions.


 The Organizational Review Committee (ORC) convenes following the stated deadline to review applications.  This committee will contact petitioning groups regarding their status. 

Please contact us at rso@asurams.edu if you have any questions about this process.
