Start a New Student Organization

Don’t see an org that fits your interests? Request to start one! We’re excited to help you start a new community and have created a process to make it happen.

PROCESS TO START A NEW STUDENT ORGANIZATION

Step 1

Schedule a meeting with the Office of Student Engagement to discuss the proposed organization, the application process, and related policies. Email studentengagement@belmont.edu to set up this meeting!

Step 2

Fill out the “New Student Organization Request” form on BruinLink. We will review new org requests on November 15 and April 15. Follow this link to submit a request.

Step 3

Wait for follow up from the Office of Student Engagement. The Office of Student Engagement team will follow up regarding your application before the beginning of the next semester following the deadline. Please hold off on any organizational activity* until your approval is granted. 

Step 4

Now that you’re up and running, personalize your organization’s BruinLink page. BruinLink is the place where club leaders can reserve space on campus, communicate activities to members and the Belmont community, and receive information about all policies and procedures. 

*NOTE: If you want to gauge interest in an organization before officially starting one, you’re able to host up to 3 meetings in campus spaces without being an official org. Just email studentengagement@belmont.edu to reserve space.
