Registration Requirements
Membership Requirements
All student organizations are required to have a minimum of 3 members. All members must be students in good academic standing and registered at Arizona State University.
*Membership in a registered student organization is limited to students enrolled for at least one semester hour of credit at ASU. Faculty, alumni, and others may participate in the activities and programs of student organizations, but may not be recognized as an organizational member unless also enrolled in at least one semester hour of credit at ASU.
Officer Requirements
All student organizations are required to have a minimum of 3 officers. All officers must be students registered and currently enrolled at Arizona State University.
All 3 officers must complete the Student officer training course and receive a 7/8 quiz score.
Constitution
All organizations are required to submit a constitution when registering or renewing their student organization. If you are registering with the online registration system for the first time, you will be instructed as to how to upload a copy of the constitution. A sample template to assist you in constructing and formatting your constitution is available on Sun Devil® Sync. Select the Document Type dropdown in the top left and click on “Constitution/Bylaws”.
Non-Discrimination Statement
All constitutions are required to include and clearly label the Non-Discrimination Statement:
Membership and all privileges, including voting and officer positions, must be extended to all students without regard to age, ethnicity, gender, disability, color, national origin, race, religion, sexual orientation, or veteran status. Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Section 106.14, makes an exception for social fraternities and sororities, in regard to gender, for membership criteria. Religious student organizations will not be denied registration solely because they limit membership or leadership positions to students who share the same religious beliefs. These groups, however, may not discriminate in membership or leadership on any other prohibited basis (i.e., age, ethnicity, gender, disability, color, national origin, race, sexual orientation, or veteran status).
Membership Statement
All ASU organizations must be open to any and all Arizona State University students. All constitutions are required to include this exact membership statement:
Membership in (insert your Student Organization Name) is open to all students enrolled in at least three (3) semester hours of University credit at ASU.
Faculty Advisor

Club Advisors serve as a bridge between the university and student organizations to create a cohesive and holistic experience both inside and outside of the classroom. Club Advisors play an active role in guiding students in their pursuit of leadership development, connecting students to resources, and positively impact the overall well-being of the students they serve.

Eligible advisors must serve ASU in the role of professor, teaching professor, or clinical professor, with 2+ years of experience at ASU (including: professor, associate professor, assistant professor, clinical professor, clinical associate professor, clinical assistant professor, teaching professor, teaching associate professor, or teaching assistant professor).

Finding an advisor
Tips for finding an advisor:
Ask your professors – is there a current or previous professor of yours who shares in the mission of your club?
Sun Devil Sync – see which faculty members are currently serving as advisors. Link to Sun Devil Sync.
Network – ask your fellow club members, professors, or ASU staff for connections to potentially interested faculty.
Browse ASU websites – ASU News and specific academic units highlight faculty profiles and stories on their website.
ASU Search – enter keywords in ASU Search (https://search.asu.edu/) to find professors by department, research area, or general interests.
Student Organizations and Leadership team – connect with your campus liaison if you have additional questions about finding an advisor.
Once you've identified and connected with a faculty who meets the advisor requirements criteria, be sure to have them access the Student Organization Advisor Training and complete the Advisor Training quiz with at least a 4/6 score and the Clery Act Training quiz with at least a 9/10 score. Both quizzes are found within the training canvas page shared here!
