Want to get involved? Joining a student organization is a great way to
meet other students at the University of Oklahoma with the same interests as
you. Check out this page
on the Student Life website
for a list of current student organizations.
The UOSA’s General Counsel’s Office reviews student organization
constitutions to ensure compliance with the University of Oklahoma Student
Code and UOSA Constitution. The General Counsel’s Office uses six main
criteria to determine compliance with University rules and regulations. The
General Counsel may advise student organizations concerning the six criteria
used to evaluate constitutions and how to effectively comply with the
requirements.
Please note that a copy of the current constitution must be submitted to
the Center for Student Life by Friday, September 18, in order to be eligible
for the benefits of registration, including access to funds and participation
in campus activities. Registration materials may be found on the Student
Life website. Constitutions may be submitted electronically, but
registration must also be fully completed. Because constitution requirements
have been updated recently, please do not send a previous copy of your
organization's constitution without checking to make sure that it meets all
requirements.
