All student organizations and groups are subject to the rules and policies of Nova Southeastern University (NSU), including, but not limited to, the NSU Student Handbook and are subject to the NSU Law Code of Academic Regulations. STARTING A NEW STUDENT ORGANIZATION Students seeking to start a new student organization organized under, and funded by, the Student Bar Association (SBA) must meet with the dean of students to discuss the approval process. Prior to starting the organization, please review the list of inactive organizations to be sure your proposed organization has not already been established. All student organizations must be approved by the faculty. The dean of students and the president of the SBA must be provided with a New Student Organization Form (forms.office.com/r/nN9cgP7YgE), proposed bylaws, constitution, the name of the secured faculty adviser, and the names of the organization’s board members. Please note that the full executive board must be in place prior to submission. Proposals must include evidence of continuity to ensure the organization will be sustainable. If the proposal is accepted by the dean of students and the president of the SBA, the dean of students shall forward the information to the dean of the college with a request that it be placed on the agenda for approval at the next faculty meeting. Upon approval by the faculty, the president and the treasurer of the new organization must meet with the president and the treasurer of the SBA for formation and financial guidance. The president and the treasurer of the new organization must also complete student fee account training.
