Recognition process- Step By Step Guide
If you are looking to start a new organization, here is what you need to do?
Step 1.
A representative of your organization MUST attend one of the following REQUIRED New Organization Recognition Workshops to learn more about Student Activities policies, registering your organization and the budget process. Organizations who do not attend a recognition session will NOT be eligible for recognition until the following semester. Funding applications for clubs will be distributed by the AU Club Council (AUCC) at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters. For more information, contact the AUCC chair at x6453 or aucc@american.edu.
Step 2.
Submit an organization recognition application online
through the Student Organization Network (S.O.N.) to Student Activities. A
complete application packet includes the online registration form, a
constitution, and a faculty/staff advisor agreement. Clubs are recognized and
funded twice a year.
Step 3.
Within ONE week of receiving your organizations
application packet, Student Activities will notify the group’s primary contact
with the Recognition Committee’s approval or denial of recognition status and
your Student Activities Program Advisor’s contact information. (Media
Organization wishing to be recognized must also be approved by the Media Board.
The recognition sessions for the Media Board are organization by the Media
Board Chair)
