Annual Re-registration Process


Once organizations have registered for the first time, they must re-register every fall semester or whenever the leadership of the organization transitions in order to receive student organization benefits. Click HERE to re-register your student organization.

The use of the Indiana University name in the student organization name:

“Indiana University – Bloomington recognizes and supports the development of all student organizations. Student organizations are not departments or administrative units of Indiana University, and therefore we require all student groups who choose to use the Indiana University or IU name to clearly indicate in their organizational title, constitution, and paraphernalia that they are “at Indiana University.

The purpose of this distinction is to ensure that outside organizations that do interact with student organizations are aware that their dealings are with the club or group and not with the University itself. Student organizations may use Indiana University before the title or name of their group only if the organization receives money from the Committee for Fee Review, has been approved for listing on the Bursar’s registration checklist, or upon approval by the Dean of Students.”

To re-register your organization with Student Activities your group must:

  • Submit an updated roster (remember, at least 5 currently enrolled IU Bloomington students) and organization information online at http://webdb.iu.edu/sao.  
  • Update and file a revised constitution if any changes have been made, by submitting it to Student Activities in person or via e-mail (sao@indiana.edu). 
  • Designate 3 student officers who are able to reserve space and serve as primary contacts for the organization
  • Have the majority of the members as Indiana University students (although faculty, staff and community members are welcome to participate in student groups)
  • Have officers (ex. President, Vice-President, and Treasurer) who are Indiana University students.
