Student Organization Annual Review
Each year, the Students’ Association Government and Wilson Commons Student Activities jointly administer the Student Organization Annual Review (SOAR). The goal of the annual review is to ensure student organizations are meeting expectations, assessing the activities they offer the campus, and are receiving feedback on resources needed to be successful. SOAR’s evaluation is also utilized by the Students’ Association Appropriations Committee (SAAC) during their budgeting review period. Please note, student organizations recognized during the fall semester do not need to complete the annual review.
- Resources
- Attend a SOAR information session hosted by the Student Organization Administration & Review Committee (ARC). Fall 2024 dates will be announced during the fall semester.
- Connect with your organization’s advisor. Check in to see how your organization is doing and determine what could be done to improve your score.
- Contact the Student Organization Administration & Review Committee (ARC).
- Contact Wilson Commons Student Activities.
- Helpful Tips
- Start talking about SOAR now with your executive board. Review your past evaluation letters to learn how you can improve your score for this year. Don’t forget to review the goal your organization selected for this year. Engage with your members to see how they can help your organization succeed.
- New to your organization’s executive board? You can review old SOAR self-reports and evaluation letters within your organization’s CCC dashboard. Locate the “Files” button and navigate to the “SOAR Report” folder.
- Review your organization’s CCC group page and website sooner than later. Check out our CCC FAQs for tips on how to make your CCC site sparkle and shine. Additional help can be provided during CCC Office Hours.
- The entire executive board should be involved in the completion of the self-report. This is not a process that should be completed by one officer.
- Include as much detail as possible. Tell us about your activities (what went well, what didn’t), co-sponsorships, and how your organization really strived to meet your mission.
- Although not required, review your self-report with your advisor before submitting.
