Students who wish to start a club/organization and become part of the Student Government shall be subject to the following:

• Develop a club/organization constitution
• Complete Membership Roster: Including all Executive positions and Club Representative to the SGA.
• Complete Form A (Non high-risk club) or Form B (high-risk club) for Club/Organization Advisor.
• File a location for weekly meetings with Student Activities Office.

· Announce the Club/Organization Advisor to the SGA.
· Present its purpose to the Senate. 
 
Once the club/organization has completed the above guidelines:
 
· The vote for a club/organization to enter a probationary period with the Student Government shall be postponed one meeting after the club/organization’s application for inclusion has been submitted, to allow the Senate time for review. 
· A simple majority vote by the Senate must be obtained in order for the club/organization to enter a probationary period in the SGA. The probationary period shall consist of 14 class weeks (Note: “class week” is defined as weeks during which classes are held in the Fall and Spring semesters). 
 

Once accepted into the SGA under probationary status, the club/organization:

· Must have at least one member present at all SGA meetings. The club/organization shall organize and successfully carry out a campus activity with the supervision of a Senate-nominated member of the SGA.

· Shall be allocated a budget for that probationary period. The probationary budget shall be created by the SGA Executive Board according to what the club/organization’s outlook for the year will be, member roster size, and the stated purpose of the club/organization.

· Shall be required to fundraise ten percent (10%) of their allotted probationary budget.

At the end of the trial period, the club/organization president and/or members of the club’s executive board shall again come before the SGA and give a report of their probationary period. The SGA-sponsored member assigned to the club/organization shall then give a cursory analysis of the club/organization’s involvement and activities on campus.
 
Upon final Senate approval of the club/organization’s inclusion into the SGA, the new club/organization must then conform to the guidelines of the SGA Constitution.
