Chartering/Rechartering a Club
New Clubs
Interested in starting a club of your own? There are three main steps to starting a club:
Gather Interest and form a group of students (this group should include at least one adult sponsor who is also interested in the club).
With your sponsor, fill out the Sponsor Agreement Form.
Fill out the Club Chartering Form embedded below.
Existing Clubs
The process is very similar for existing clubs.
Meet with club leadership and confirm form details (this should also confirm sponsorship).
Fill out the Club Chartering Form embedded below.
Note
A complete list of all clubs can be found on this page.
Club Funding Information
Important Update
The purpose of the Student Government Association Budget is to best serve the entire student body. As such, we request that you carefully consider what is being requested. Ideally, materials should be able to remain in the possession of Student Government and be re-used for future events. This budget will need to last for the entire school-year. Please consider starting an Amazon Wishlist or similar tools. The SGA requests that one representative from the club requesting funding be present at the subsequent Senate Meeting to elaborate on why this funding is merited.
How to Acquire Funds/Resources
There are multiple ways to acquire funds for club events and activities:
Talk with the Student Life Department and see if the event is a available for them to cosponser. Many cultural festivals and holidays are able to be funded this way.
Check the Student Life/Student Government inventory embedded below. Many items do not need to be repurchased and can instead be borrowed.
Fill out a Student Government Funding Request Form embedded below. In this form you will find a Funding Request Google Doc that can be used to ask for funds. You will be notified about your funds after they are accepted/rejected by the Student Senate at the Senate Meeting (find calendar here) and when they have been purchased by Kayla Lowdermilk (kayla.lowdermilk@ncssm.edu).
If you are the student representative from your club who typically fills out the funding request, we highly recommend bookmarking this page.
