If you have any questions regarding event planning, paying vendors, applying for reimbursements or school policies, feel free to stop by the Office of the Dean of Students (280 Simon Hall) or email Student Academic Advising and Support Services (SAASS).

New Student Organization Registration Form and RSO Requirement:
There are two parts to registering your student organization
Your organization must complete the Annual Registration form with Berkeley Law.
All Berkeley Law student organizations must complete an annual registration form. The Office of the Dean of Students will use this form to verify student group eligibility for participation in the Activities Fair, room reservations, SABL funding, Berkeley Law email accounts, etc. Please contact SAASS if you have any questions.
2. Register with the greater Campus
Because of the University’s campus events policy, all Berkeley Law student groups also must be Registered Student Organizations (RSOs) with the OASIS Center (formerly known as LEAD). There are many benefits of OASIS Center registration, including additional funding opportunities. Registration information for returning organizations and new organizations can be found on the OASIS Center website. Please note that the OASIS Center registration is a multi-step process that requires, among other things:
- Student Organization Application
- Designation of four students to serve as signatories.
- Submission of organization’s up-to-date constitution
- Completion of Student Organization Signatory Training on bCourses
The OASIS registration will open in the summer.
Organizations will not be permitted to reserve rooms at the law school or apply for SABL funding until they have submitted their completed registration forms, including RSO registration. Therefore, it is imperative that you start the RSO registration process as soon as possible.
Please note, this form does not replace your SABL funding application, this form instead will be stored in the Office of the Dean of Students. The SABL funding application will be available later in the beginning of the Fall semester and will be reviewed by the SABL Treasurer. Again, you must have a completed the Registration Form on file with SAASS to be eligible for SABL funding.
