Office of Student Group Advising (OSGA)
Mission
The Office of Student Group Advising (OSGA) works to enhance the undergraduate educational experience by fostering a dynamic and enriching University community, supporting responsible student governance and co-curricular activities. Through advising, the office encourages critical thinking and the free exchange of ideas by all the student organizations it supports. OSGA will provide programming in leadership skills, program development, and organizational management to all undergraduate student organizations recognized by SGB and ISGB, and assist students in their development as individuals, community members, and leaders.
OSGA is committed to supporting the programming of our faith-based, spiritual, political, activist and humanitarian student organizations to encourage open inter religious and political dialogue at Columbia University’s Morningside Campus. The Office of Student Group Advising is particularly mindful of the centrality of academic programs at Columbia, and seeks to help students successfully integrate co-curricular activities into their overall educational and professional goals.
