How To Become a New Recreational Club:

Application Steps for the 2013-14 School Year

There are three steps to starting a club:

1. Submitting an application via org sync. This application can be found here.
2. Attending a one on one meeting with the Rec Club coordinator
3. Attending a New Club Training

Timeline:

  1. Fall and Winter Term: Prepare for registration. Read the SOAR policy to make sure your idea meets all the requirements. Get club leaders organized and start finding other students who would be interested.
  2. February 20th - March 1st, 2013: Submit new club application on Orgsync. You will attach the club constitution in the application, see below for a template.
  3. March 16th, 2013: Deadline to schedule and complete a meeting with the Rec Club coordinator and all three Club leaders. Please contact stesha@pdx.edu to set up this meeting.
  4. May 1st, 2013: Approved clubs announced.
  5. After the meeting, PSU Risk Management in conjunction with Campus Recreation will determine if PSU can approve the club. This can take several weeks depending on the club activity. Some clubs cannot be approved; club leaders will be contacted before the May 1st date if there are issues that need to be resolved.
  6. Spring Term- Middle of May: If accepted, all three club leaders will attend new club training. Time TBA


Please Note: If your club is accepted, it will not be eligible for funding until its second year.
