Before you being the application process, please read the following policies, instructional sections, and proceed to the bottom of the page.
After reading each policy, check the boxes on the application form that state that you understand each policy and agree to have your student organization abide by all the policies. These boxes must be checked in order for your application to be processed.
Complete the entire application form.
Incomplete applications or applications not submitted online WILL NOT be processed.
Submit a complete advisor form.
Your advisor needs to fill out and email the Advisor Form. (This application must be sent from the advisor's e-mail in order for it to be processed). The direct URL is: http://sait.usc.edu/stuorgs/pages/advform.asp. Advisor Forms are only accepted online.
Submit a constitution.
If your organization is new or has made changes to the existing constitution, you must submit a constitution to TSC 100.
The deadline to be recognized for Spring semester is Monday, February 4, 2008 at 5:00 pm. Applications will not be accepted after this date and time. Organizations that miss this fall deadline will have to apply for recognition in Spring 2008. The Spring recognition process runs from Monday, January 7 – February 4 at 5:00 pm.
Recreational Sports Organizations
This application process is to provide University recognition to student organizations. This does not grant access to membership within the Recreational Club Council (RCC). Organizations must first obtain University recognition, then speak with Recreational Sports about RCC membership.
Notification
An email will be sent to the contact person of each organization notifying them of any problems or if their recognition is complete. If the organization's recognition process is complete, they will be notified and their recognition letter will be emailed to them. A letter will also be sent to the advisor stating the organizations' recognition status for the academic year. Organizations will be contacted in approximately 48 hours (not including weekends or holidays) after receiving the completed application, advisor form and constitution (if needed). If there is a problem with the application, the contact person will be notified. It is the organization's responsibility to get recognized. As such, students should not just assume their organization is recognized just because the application was submitted. The student organization contact person should check-in with the PLC office (213.740.5341) to make sure their application is complete.
If you have read all the policies and agree to follow them, please proceed:
