FAQ Heading link

What is registration? Registration is the process that keeps your organization’s details up to date and recognized by UIC Center for Student Involvement (CSI).

How long does the registration take? Once you’ve completed all the steps of registration, your registration still must be approved by CSI. This can take between 10-14 business days, so please prepare accordingly.

What happens if I don’t meet the deadline? Your organization will be “Frozen.” You won’t be recognized by CSI and you won’t have access to your student organization account until you complete the registration process.
