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 Some organizations continue to operate after their registration has been revoked despite the action taken by the university.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

Students for Justice in Palestine

Campus:	Columbus
Status:	Active - New/Re-Established II
Purpose Statement:	The Ohio State University Student’s for Justice in Palestine is a democratic student organization, whose main focus is the liberation and self-determinism of the Palestinian people; this includes Palestinians within Israel, the Occupied Territories, and diaspora. SJP believes that a crucial step towards a practical political solution relies on justice not only for some, but for all as equal citizens. We condemn Israel’s non-compliance with international law. We firmly reject the apartheid system Palestinians in the territories have and continue to live under. We affirm that all peoples are entitled to human rights and the protection of international law. We oppose all forms of racism, including but not limited to, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, and white supremacy. We oppose all forms of oppression towards marginalized groups globally; particularly we emphasize our solidarity with other oppressed indigenous peoples. We understand that our struggle is inherently linked to a long history of global colonialism, and seek to find association with groups also working for liberation and recognition. We firmly reject the military occupation as well as all other forms of state and institutionalized violence. This includes the blockade on Gaza, and the West Bank Wall. We condemn repression and affirm our right to self-expression; we stand in solidarity with Israel’s Palestinian political prisoners who are being unjustly held for doing the same. We insist and that the Palestinian Question be answered with Palestinian self-determinism. We seek to create a dialogue on the Palestinian perspective and encourage all to participate with us. SJP recognizes and supports the 2005 call to boycott, divest, and sanction. BDS should be should be maintained until Israel meets its obligation to recognize the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to self-determination and fully complies with the precepts of international law by: 1. Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands, dismantling the Wall and freeing all Palestinian and Arab political prisoners. 2. Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and, 3. Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN General Assembly resolution 194
