For First-Years Only: Link Up To Involvement...How to Get Involved!

Welcome to Virginia Tech.  Through this site, you can get involved with student activities, clubs and organizations, leadership development, and leisure and recreation.  These links will help you explore the Division of Student Affairs programs that complement the academic program and enriches the quality of student life at Virginia Tech.

We encourage everyone to get involved, and not only because it is fun!  Research indicates that there are numerous benefits to involvement, and reveals that students who are involved:

  • receive better grades
  • are more successful in their academic program
  • are more likely to stay in school and graduate on time
  • feel more satisfied with their college experience
  • are more marketable when job searching and applying to grad school
  • develop valuable leadership and interpersonal skills.

Furthermore, involvement offers students the opportunity to meet other students and connect with university faculty and staff members.
