Recognition of Student Organizations

What constitutes a student organization at the University of Cincinnati?

A student organization is defined as a group of University students who unite to promote or celebrate a common interest. While student organizations of the University may include members from other schools, faculty, staff, or community members, the majority of the organization must be University of Cincinnati undergraduates. Additionally, only matriculating undergraduates  and graduates are permitted to serve as officers of officially recognized student organizations.

What does it mean to be a registered Student Organization at the University of Cincinnati?

A registered organization is registered with the Office of Student Activities and Leadership Development. Only when an organization is approved by the Student Activities Board and registered with the Office of Student Activities and Leadership Development  will it be able to participate in activities such as holding fundraisers, reserving rooms, etc. 

Please familiarize yourself with the privileges/benefits and make sure that your organization is not participating in these types of activities unless and until it gets registered.

Student Organization Registration Process

Each year all student organizations are required to re-register their organization with the Office of Student Activities and Leadership Development and Student Activities Board. Fully registered student organizations will have the right to participate in campus sponsored events, sponsor fundraisrers, and reserve space on campus.  The process to register student organizations includes the following:
