OrgSync is an online social community that allows people to connect and promote events on campus. The W began using OrgSync last year, but there are still many who don’t understand how to navigate the website. The first step is making sure you have a profile. W students can use their myapps.muw.edu email address to register and create a profile at orgsync.com.

One of the benefits to OrgSync is creating groups. You can use your profile to create a group and begin tracking or planning events. To create a group, go to the Organizations tab on the “Community Home” page. On the right side of the screen, you will see a button that says “Register New Organization.” This will take you to a form that you will need to fill out, as well as allow you to choose an advisor and inform them of your group.
