Top Tips
- The Societies Board meets one week after the end of each round to discuss applications received in that time and approves/rejects applications in this meeting, so don't worry if you haven't heard from us by the time the deadline has passed.
- When filling out your application, please give as much detail as possible about your society aims and proposed activities.
- Before completing an application you should read the Student Groups Regulations and the Template Student Group Constitution that you will need to compete for your society upon becoming affiliated.
- If your proposed society is similar to another one that already exists at City, please ensure that your application shows how you will be different and won't overlap.
