In addition to assisting Registered Student Organizations planning their events and activities, Student Activities and Organizations staff are dedicated to presenting programs and services to benefit all registered organizations. Some of the benefits of being a registered organization include:

o Space Reservations- To learn about reserving space on campus, click here.
o Money- Registered student organizations are able to request money through Student Fees. For undergraduate organizations, money is allocated through the SGA Senate. For Graduate Organizations, money is allocated through the Graduate and Professional Student Senate. For Fine Arts organizations, money is allocated through the Fine Arts Funding Board. To learn more about using the money you’ve been allocated, click here.
