These organizations represent interests that range from student legislation to social activism, literary publications to Greek life. If you cannot find an organization that suits your interest, then create your own. Take a look at “Resources for Starting a New Organization” below to get started.

Organizations are classified in seven categories:

• Departmental
• Greek / Social
• Media
• Religious
• Scholastic / Honorary
• Special Interest

In accordance with Texas Education Code, Section 51.9361, all registered student organizations are required to attend training sessions on a set of risk management topics as it relates to individuals, organization functions, and/or activities. Risk Management Training is held in order to provide Southwestern University registered student organizations with the most up to date information on student organization risk management and responsible activity planning.

2026-2027 Organization Funding Request Process

As part of Southwestern University’s efforts to strengthen student leadership to engage all students in activities beyond the classroom, we are launching a new funding process for the 2026–2027 academic year.

The Student Government Association (SGA) will serve as the primary student body responsible for reviewing requests and recommending how student organization funds are allocated and distributed.

Through this new process, organizations will:

• Update organization and advisor information
• Confirm leadership for the upcoming academic year
• Submit a funding request outlining anticipated programs, events, and organizational needs

Please submit the registration and funding form by Tuesday, April 7, 2026 at 11:59 PM.

SGA will review submitted requests and work to distribute funds in a way that supports student engagement and programming across campus.

To be eligible for funding for the upcoming year, all student organizations must complete this process. Priority funding will be allocated to those organizations who submit forms by the deadline.

If you have any questions or need assistance completing the form, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are happy to help!

• Noah Ramon, Coordinator of Student Activities – ramonn@southwestern.edu
