One officer of each organization can start the process. Please log in to CampusGroups and click the "Groups" icon. From there, search for the organization and click the blue "Re-registration" button.

All returning student organizations must re-register annually to remain active. For questions, email activities@cornell.edu. The Campus Activities office can assist with re-registration. 

To re-register your student organization, ensure you have the following prerequisites for successful approval:

  1. To update officers, please email activities@cornell.edu with:
    1. Accurate name and Acronym of your student org
    2. Names of currently listed officers to remove
    3. Names of currently listed officers to remain the same
    4. Names and new positions of officers with role changes
    5. Names, NetIDs, and positions of new officers to add
  2. If your organization requires waivers for participation, please make sure that any new officers have filled out the waiver before their officer appointment. If you have officers listed who have not completed the waivers, your group will lose access to your funding.
  3. Your organization must have at least ten active members.
  4. Submit the most recent version of your constitution. If needed, use the Constitution Template.
  5. The initial re-registration form will take about 20-30 minutes to complete and needs to be completed by ONE of your group’s officers, so communicate in advance about who will do the initial re-registration form.
  6. Once the re-registration form is complete, each Officer and Advisor must spend about 20 minutes completing an Officer/Advisor form in order for the group to be reviewed for approval. This form contains important information that officers and the advisor must review.
  7. Advisors will review Clery Act Reporting, compliance agreements, accounts agreements, and Important Policies.
  8. Officers will review: Sexual Violence Prevention Training, compliance agreements, accounts agreements, and Important Policies.
  9. Once your group is registered for the academic year, please be sure to add all of your members to the group so CampusGroups has an accurate roster of your group members. 

Registration topics to keep in mind:

  • Undergraduate organizations are "officially" registered from when their re-registration is approved until the last day of classes (throughout the academic year and must primarily host club operations, events, and activities when classes are in session). Graduate/Professional organizations are "officially" registered from when their re-registration is approved throughout the calendar year. Events, activities, and operations should pause during finals (not study days) to allow students to focus on academics.
  • Each group is classified as University (IT - Internal) or Independent (EO - External) and tagged with specific categories. Categories describe the style of experience the registered student organization provides. For a more detailed breakdown of differences and similarities between IT and EO groups, please visit our group classification page.
  • Campus Activities will work with the designated representative for academic/college-affiliated organizations or another umbrella categorization.
