Student organizations

Central State University offers a complete educational, cultural, and social experience. Whatever your interests, you will find a group, organization, activity, or program that will appeal to you. We have many extracurricular activities and leadership opportunities that inspire students with out-of-class learning opportunities to enhance their college experiences. Activities range from academics to athletics and more.

These student organizations are classified under six categories: academic, business, special interest, religions, honorary, and Greek-letter organizations. The Office of the Marauder Leadership and Engagement, in conjunction with the Student Government Association’s inter-organization committee, monitors the recognized student organizations’ activities.
