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 Some organizations continue to operate after their registration has been revoked despite the action taken by the university.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

Black Women In Pharmacy

Campus: Columbus
Status: Active - New/Re-Established II
Purpose Statement: Recent studies show that African American women account for less than 3% of doctors in the U.S but account for over 12% of the national patient population. Studies have also shown that there is a positive correlation between diversity within healthcare and positive patient outcomes. "Black women in Pharmacy" is an organization aims to provide minority women with a platform to showcase and share our stories, passions, and accomplishments. Through this organization, we would like to work with others to promote racial and cultural diversity within healthcare settings. This organization will aim to meet these goals by offering educational, mentorship, and volunteer programs both within and outside of the college of pharmacy. Cultural competency is vital when considering how to treat a patient's medical needs; As minorities within the healthcare field, we recognize the urgency to combat health disparities in the U.S. While we recognize that "Black women in pharmacy" may not be able to combat this crisis alone, we are prepared to take the first steps towards promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion to the immediate community around us.
