Students must register annually with the Student Engagement office. All organizations must re-register by September 18th, 2026 to remain in good standing with the Department of Student Engagement. Failure to complete all the steps in the re-registration process will result in the organization's status to be declared "inactive." This means the student organization will be ineligible for the rights and privileges of a registered student organization. Any previous space requests that have been submitted and/or approved for the 2026-2027 academic year will be invalid until the organization is able to complete all the required steps and meet with the Department of Student Engagement.
Completing registration by August 28th will give you the opportunity to participate in the Fall Involvement Fair that will be held on September 3rd, 2026.

If you have trouble obtaining an organization advisor, please email studentorgs@winthrop.edu.
All three steps must be completed by September 18th, 2026 for your organization to be an officially recognized student organization. Failure to complete all steps by this date will result in the organization's status to be changed to inactive.
