About This Site
Click to see how Student-Orgs.org helps student organizations, academic departments, and students connect
Every student organization and academic department can now have a free profile page such as this. Everyone benefits:
-
Local Student Organizations can present themselves in a compelling way so as to raise awareness, increase engagement, showcase their accomplishments, and attract more members. They can also find and connect with other organizations and departments nationwide. Their participation also lets members show friends and family what they are doing outside the classroom.
-
Academic Departments can present themselves to current and prospective students in ways that supplement the college website, and they can connect with other departments nationwide.
-
College Students can find the organizations and departments that can enhance their college experience. They can also create a Favorites page to share the organizations and departments that interest them.
-
High School Students and Potential Transfer Students can learn more about organizations, departments, and campus life at the colleges they are considering, and they can add them to their Favorites page to keep track of favorites.
-
Colleges can better attract applicants by showing what life is like outside the classroom and in.
