Re-registered Organizations
Registration Information
Registration Requirements
Non-Discriminatory & Student Led
The organization must be student-led. This means that the organization is being directed and led by students of their own volition and willingness to operate an organization on-campus. The students in the organization should be making all decisions on behalf of the organization.
Each individual listed as a signer must be a currently enrolled UCI student. If your organization is being directed by a campus department or an off-campus entity or business, then the group is not considered a “campus organization”. If you have questions about whether your organization would be considered a Campus Organization at UCI, please reach out to our office for advising.
According to the Registered Campus Organization policy 70.10, the organization that you are starting should be non-discriminatory - this means the organization can not discriminate on the basis of gender, race, sexual orientation, gender, religious beliefs, etc. Exceptions to this policy are given to sorority/fraternity organizations.
Review the additional information below to determine if your organization meets the requirements to become a registered campus organization.
3 - 5 Signers/Officers
Signers or Officers are organization leaders that are responsible for all actions of the organization. Every organization must have a minimum of 3 signers and a maximum limit of 5. Each signer must be a currently enrolled UCI student and maintain their enrollment status. If enrollment status changes, it is the responsibility of the signer to contact our office to request a change of signer if the enrollment status changes. The President (or person who holds an equivalent position in the organization) and the Treasurer must be listed as an officer of the organization. Please note that signers/officers categorized as Club Sports must be full-time students. Signers/officers will receive CampusGroups emails-- these are not spam. Learn more about signers and officers here.
Constitution
Your organization must have a constitution on record. A constitution serves as a guiding document of operations for your organization. When you fill out the registration form you will be required to upload a constitution. Your constitution will be reviewed by COVP staff. New organizations will have the opportunity to edit the constitution during the orientation and advising sessions. Click here for constitution template. Note: Please make sure to customize the constitution template with your organization details.

A $50 registration fee will be required each year. This payment can be made via debit/credit card on CampusGroups, and cannot be processed using your ASUCI Club Account.
