Student Organizations
There's a club for that!
One of the best parts of college is finding your people! Once you land at TWU, you'll find multiple ways to discover and connect to people similar to you. Or, you can branch out and make new friends and find new interests and passions.
That's where our clubs and organizations help. We've got more than 25 student organizations including academic-focused, social-centered and even passion projects. You'll find your place in no time!
