The first few weeks of classes are typically heavy recruitment times for our RSOs. This means prospective new members might be checking out your organization’s portal page on NvolveU, and if they think your RSO is the right fit for them they might just click the “Join” button. So, what happens next?
Well, once someone clicks “Join”, a membership request will be sent to the RSO’s officers which they can view in their notifications inbox located in their User Drawer. You can also view any membership requests by navigating to the “manage” view of your organization and select the Roster tool from the organization tool drawer, found on the left hand side of the page. You will see tabs at the top for current, pending, and prospective members. "Pending" members are those who have been invited to join the organization but have not yet accepted that invitation. "Prospective" members are those who discovered your organization and have indicated they would like to join.
For prospective members, navigate to the “Prospective” tab and review the users who are awaiting membership approval. Click “Approve” or “Deny” to make a decision about that user's membership. All officers or members who have been given access to manage the Roster tool, will have the ability to approve or deny requests from users asking to join your organization.
You can also send any prospective member a message, prior to approval or denial, by selecting the checkbox to the left of their name and selecting “Send Message.” This is a great option for RSOs who may want to meet prospective members in person, or invite them to a RSO meeting before making a decision about membership.
