Now Live!

Mav Central connects you with student organizations, their events, and volunteer opportunities! As RSO student leaders, you'll want to learn all you can about Mav Central as it is our new RSO management software and it has some powerful tools. For example, the email you're reading was built in Mav Central!

On mnsu.edu/MavCentral, we have linked some helpful videos to help you get started. We will also be offering drop-in sessions on the following Tuesdays from 5-6 p.m. in CSU 204:  Aug. 29 & Sept. 19.

Please Note: As of 8/23 at 3:30 p.m. we are still waiting for our user upload, but we are able to add people manually. If you're not able to access Mav Central, please email rso-office@mnsu.edu with your starid, your @mnsu.edu email address, and the RSO you're an officer/member of! As we're able, we'll get you added.
