Adding a New Student Organization

Shortcut to Linking to a Pathway

To begin the process, please contact your representative from Suitable’s Client Success Team if you would like to add Student Organizations to your subscription.

Keep in mind…

• Access Level: Student Org Admin, Org Admin
• This article is intended for users with Student Org Admin or Org Admin access in Suitable. If you don’t have one of these roles, some of the steps outlined below may not be available in your account.
• Ineligible Roles: Member, Leader, Manager
• You will need to have institutional organization administrator access to add a new student organization.

Creating a New Student Organization

1. Click on your program’s logo in the top left corner of Suitable and switch to your program’s institutional organization.

2. Click ‘Add New Organization’ in the top right corner.

3. Once in the organization creation wizard, upload a profile image for the organization. Then, enter the organization name.

• Note: ignore the Student Group/Admin Group toggle.

4. Enter information for at least one section. These sections are customizable. We recommend adding at least 2 sections:

• Summary
• Officers
  • Other sections could include: a link to an officer update survey, a link to upcoming events, and a resource link library, but you can add whichever sections you think would be valuable to those who are interested in the organization.
  • The privacy of each section can also be updated:
    • Public: Anyone can see the content section, authenticated with Suitable or not.
    • All Students: All authenticated users can see the content section.
    • Members Only: Only users added to the Organization Roster can view the content section.

5. After adding at least one section to the organization, choose ‘Save Organization’ at the bottom.

Linking to a Pathway

6. Navigate to the program logo in the top left corner of Suitable and choose the program dashboard that you would like to link this organization to.

7. Choose the Organizations tab on the left sidebar and search for your newly created organization. On the organization card, click ‘Link to your pathway’ to make it visible to students within this pathway. Students should now be able to view and interact with this student organization.
