Starting a New Student Organization

               

Click on the following link to sign in to Community once you have read the directions below.

All new student organizations must submit the following information on-line for their packet to be complete:
     1. A roster of five student members.
     2. A full time faculty or staff member willing to be your organization adviser.
     3. Attach the organization constitution or governing document.

Once your packet of information is complete and submitted, ASNAU will vote to approve your organization. This process only takes place the first time a group is established at NAU.  Following this first approval, you will simply need to update your information on-line each year through Community.  Once your registration materials are complete you will placed on the agenda for the next ASNAU meeting which takes place each week on Thursday afternoon at 4 p.m. in the Havasupai Room A & B of the University Union.  We will let you know when you should attend the meeting. A member of your organization will need to be in attendance at the Thursday meeting to provide a brief presentation about your group – usually 2-3 minutes.  ASNAU will then vote on your organization’s registration, after which, your group will be activated within Community. 

OK, you are ready to get started.
1. Click on Community and login.

2. Once into Community, you will find a yellow box at the right hand top of the page.

3.  Click on “New Group Registration”.

4.  Complete the information in each field.

5.  Be sure to click on the button to add Documents so you can add your constitution.

6.  Be sure to add your members and officers (you need five).

7.  Submit your materials.

That’s it!  If you need assistance, please contact the Office of Student Life by email at Student.Life@nau.edu or call 928/523-5181.  We would be glad to assist.
