Renew an existing association

Associations on the Bocconi register have to renew their registration each academic year.

By applying for renewal, the association declares to the University its interest in continuing its student activities, and informs the offices of possible changes to its board, its composition or its statute.

 

RENEWAL PROCESS FOR AY 2025-2026 

  1. Submission of the renewal application by the set deadlines and procedures together with all the required documentation
  2. Acknowledgment and acceptance of the General Regulations and the Operational Regulations
  3. Presence of at least 20 members (Bocconi students)
    Please note: ALL members must fill out a dedicated form in the agenda to attest membership.
  4. Organization of at least one event during the academic year, or of an activity held in collaboration with the University or communication activities approved by the CASA Committee after the evaluation of the “communication plan”. Other types of activities approved by the CASA Committee may be taken into consideration, after verifying the commitment and involvement of the association.

1. Statute
in compliance with laws, codes of conduct and Bocconi University's principles and regulations, that includes admission criteria, leadership selection criteria, objectives and scopes and that states the absence of any kind of discrimination. 
During the renewal process the association must declare whether the statute is exactly the same as the one previously submitted and approved or  whether the statute has been updated/amended and not yet submitted to the CASA Committee. In the first case a copy of the current statute must be uploaded. In the latter case it is necessary to submit the updated statute highlighting the differences from the last one for which approval is requested for a.y. 2025-2026 
For further information about the structure of the statute, please CLICK HERE.

2. Logo (if present)

During the renewal procedure and before uploading the logo, the association must indicate whether the uploaded logo has remained the same as the one already approved and used or whether the uploaded logo is different from the one already approved and therefore the association wants to change/modify the current logo (in this case before using the new logo, the association will need to wait for its approval by the CASA Committee).

Please find below the main indications for a compliant logo: 

  • Using the colors and font of the university’s official logo is not allowed
  • If the full name of the association is used, then it must be complete
  • The acronym of the association may be used, provided it is unique

     

3. A document attesting the organization of:

  1. At least one event during the academic year: please attach the promotional material
    OR
  2. Activities carried out in cooperation with the University: please attach a brief description of the initiative and the office involved 
    OR
  3. Communication activities approved by the CASA Committee after the evaluation of the communication plan: please attach the email attesting the submission of the final output or other confirmation

    In the absence of at least one of the three above-mentioned documents at point 3, it will be possible to request the evaluation of the renewal application by submitting documentation proving another type of initiative, approved by the CASA Committee, that demonstrates the Association's commitment and involvement.
