Registration Policy

As found in the Ram's Eye View Student Handbook, page 26

To insure an accurate listing of all student organizations and advisors, the University requires all student organizations to register formally with the Office of Student Leadership & Involvement in 238 Sykes Union.

To be an official student organization at West Chester University a group must:

1. Be officially approved by SGA through the formal student government approval process.
2. Agree to abide by the University policies and regulations as outlined in the Student Code of Conduct.
3. Have an official advisor who is currently a faculty, administrator, or staff member at the University.
4. Register with the Office of Student Leadership & Involvement, 238 Sykes Union. In addition, a copy of the organization's current constitution must also be attached to the WCU Student Organization Registration Form. Every year, that is, on an annual basis, all organizations are required to register with the Office of Student Leadership & Involvement by October 1. Any changes in officer and/or advisor information that occurs during the academic year must be changed on the official WCU Student Organization Registration Form, which is kept on file in the Office of Student Leadership & Involvement.

Please note that student organizations which do not register with the Office of Student Leadership & Involvement will lose their status as a recognized group on campus. Loss of recognition precludes any group from financial assistance, use of University facilities and services, and using the name of West Chester University to represent the organization.
