New society registration closed 

New society registrations for the academic year 2025-26 have closed. If you are interested in starting a new society at the beginning of next year, please review the materials below in preparation. 

Register a new society

Thinking of setting up your own society? Cambridge SU is here to help. Benefits of registering a society with us include access to Freshers' and Refreshers' Fair stalls, finance accounts, and society promotion. 

Is your society university-wide or college-based?

If your society is college-based, then ensure you speak to your JCR/MCR for more details on setting it up. At Cambridge SU, we also recognise college-based societies so, if you have already done this, you can register with us.

Is your society a duplicate?

Look through our Find a Society list to make sure that the society or club you want to set up doesn't already exist. Exact duplicate societies will not be approved in the interests of providing clarity to prospective members. 

Are you using University Branding?

Please check the guidelines here. 

Would you like to register with the Proctor's Office?

 Visit the university registered society page, or email the Proctor's Office for more information. 

Terms and Conditions of Registration

Have you got at least three committee members and a society constitution? All the requirements for setting up a society are listed in our society T&Cs and is it mandatory for any society leads to read them.
