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 Some organizations continue to operate after their registration has been revoked despite the action taken by the university.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.

Advocates for Women of the World

Campus: Columbus
Status: Active - Established
Purpose Statement: Our mission is to advocate for global gender equality by spreading awareness of and taking action against issues faced by people marginalized on the basis of sex and gender. In order to tackle a diverse array of problems that affect these individuals internationally, we have assembled three event chairs devoted to plaining events centered on: Gender-Based Violence Awareness, Equitable Education, Environmental & Economic Empowerment, and Health. We work to create events that raise awareness about and take action against global gender inequities - all while building advocates within our organization and giving them the opportunity to grow and become better global citizens.
