Find a Student Organization

There are over 1,400 student organizations at Ohio State and over half of all students join a student organization. Students who choose to get involved achieve many positive outcomes - leadership skills, better grades, friendships and mentors, and make a big campus seem small. Use the tools below to search for, find, and get involved with student organizations.

You can also connect with many of our student organizations at our Student Involvement Fairs in August and January. Check out the Student Involvement Fairs webpage for the latest information.

For individualized assistance find the student organization that's right for you, schedule a Get Involved Consultation. These 30-minute meetings will provide a personalized list of recommendations based on your interests and aspirations.

Please consult this list of student organizations with revoked registration as of Spring 2024. Some organizations continue to operate after their registration has been revoked despite the action taken by the university. We encourage you to review an organization’s status before becoming involved with it, especially because sometimes an organization’s status is revoked due to serious concerns like hazing and other behavior that risks your health and safety.

Time of Year for New Membership: AED is open to all prospective members throughout the year and we encourage anyone interested to come to a meeting and/or join. National membership is expected of members once they meet eligibility requirements; applications are due in the spring. Members who are not eligible and/or have not applied for national membership yet are considered affiliate or inititate members. Please visit https://osuaedelta.wixsite.com/aedohiostate/about-history or see below for further details on membership classifications.
How does a Prospective Member Apply: AED at OSU is home to National Members, Affiliate Members, and Initiates: National Members have been recognized through the national office as official members of the honorary society. These members are past their 3rd semester of college, have a minimum 3.2 cumulative GPA and BCPM, and have fully applied and been inducted into the honorary society. Applicants must pay a one-time $75 national membership fee, sent in with their application directly to the national office. Upon the office's approval, they are guaranteed national membership for life as long as they maintain the required academic standing. Applying for national membership is expected once students meet eligibility requirements. ***As an organization, we understand differences in accessibility and do not want a financial burden to restrict an applicant's desire to be a nationally recognized member of AED. If the fee is a concern, contact Dr. A or an Exec Board member and we will discuss options with you! Affiliate Members are past their 3rd semester of college, but are not recognized by the national office as official members of the honorary society as they have not applied through the national office to be members. Initiates are those that are not yet past their 3rd semester of college but are active within the organization and intend to apply for national membership.
Charge Dues: Yes
