Re-Registration 2023-2024

Greetings, Student Leaders,

This email serves as the first ANNOUNCEMENT for information regarding the 2023 – 2024 Registered Student Organization (RSO) Re-Registration process. RSO Re-Registration will occur from Monday, August 1 to Friday, September 30. Every year, all registered student organizations must re-register on Hopkins Groups by their organization’s leadership. The re-registration process will occur on Monday, August 1, and end on Friday, September 30, at 11:59 p.m.

The re-registration process is in place to:

• Better support student leaders in their transition of organizational information
• Give an opportunity to exiting leadership to reflect on the year of leadership
• Ensure that the new administration has the pertinent information to run the organization effectively
• Provide updated information about active student organizations

Please look at the information below, so your organizations can start preparing for the 2022-2023 Re-Registration Process:
