Start An Organization

Starting an organization is a two step process.

1. Visit the Student Government “Start a Club” page and follow the recognition process as directed.
2. Please email startagroup@tcnj.edu to inform them of your interest. This email can also provide answers to any questions you may have about the process.

  • The Student Government recognition process generally takes between three and six weeks.
  • Full approval for a new organization is achieved via a majority vote of the SG General Body.
  • Once approved, the Student Government can assist your organization in its functioning and success.

Once fully approved by the Student Government, you will receive instructions on to schedule a New Organization Orientation and Advising meeting with the Office of Student Involvement. Any questions related to this on-boarding meeting can be directed to the Graduate Assistant for Student involvement at involvementga@tcnj.edu.

NOTE: If you are interested in starting a new fraternity or sorority, please see the Expansion Process to review the process, requirements, and contacts.
