Are you interested in starting a new student organization here at EKU? Student Life and First-Year Experience can help!

In order to receive benefits of being a Registered Student Organization (RSO), all student organizations must complete the registration process. New RSOs may complete the registration process anytime throughout the year. In order to complete this form, you will need the following information:

  • Name, EKU ID Number (901 number), EKU Email, and phone number for two officers (one must be acting President)
  • Name, EKU ID Number (901 number), and EKU Email for four general members (these may serve as other officers as well)
  • Name, EKU ID Number (901 number), EKU Email, department, and campus phone number for a faculty or staff advisor. This is required for SSOs and optional for VSOs. VSO advisors must complete the required volunteer paperwork.
  • Constitution/bylaws
  • Statement of Purpose
  • Profile Picture

Log into Engage and then you can follow the outlined steps to apply to be a new registered student organization here at EKU. Please note that it may take several business days to process your request as the committee to approve meets meets monthly.
