Registration Checklist ​
​
SGA recognition is done through the SORC registration and re-registration applications. In order to apply for SGA recognition for the Fall 2024 semester, fill out the SORC registration or re-registration form (located on TerpLink) for your student group by October 1st, 2020.
You can do this by following the steps below.
Step 1: Log into TerpLink.
​
Step 2: Go to your org’s page on TerpLink.
​
Step 3: Click on “manage organization” on the top right of the page (you must be logged in to do this).
​
Step 4: You will be redirected to a new page. You should see the following notification asking you to re-register or register your org at the top of the new page. The following is an example of what you would see for an org that needs to be SORC re-registered:
Please visit the SORC Registration Checklist if you do not see this notification.
​
Step 5: Clicking on the blue box that says “re-register this organization” or “register this organization” will bring you to the SORC re-registration or registration application.
​
Step 6: When filling out the SORC registration or re-registration form, select "yes" for the question that asks "Does your student organization wish to apply for SGA Recognition?" Once you do that, your student group's constitution will be reviewed by the SGA’s Committee on Student Groups.
​
Step 7: Your SGA recognition status will be posted on the SGA website through the link above.
