RSO REGISTRATION FORMS
All RSOs are required to work with their advisors to complete two forms before registering via : RSO Advisor Letter of Intent and RSO Advisor Expectations Form. Students should make sure they acquire all necessary signatures before submitting these forms during the registration process.
