U of T Groups
You can view a list of all recognized University of Toronto groups on the Student Organization Portal.
To start a new U of T group, you will need to apply for campus recognition through the Student Organization Portal. Recognition by the University of Toronto affords groups the following privileges:

- Use of University facilities and meeting spaces at a lower cost or at no cost (compared to external organizations).
- Access to group email accounts, listservs, portal space and other services.
- Listings in directories provided to the University community, including the Student Organization Portal and the University event calendar. Most groups at the University of Toronto seek recognition.
