There are so many ways to get involved at JMU! With nearly 400 clubs and organizations, there is definitely something for you! Many students find that being involved helps them manage their time better. But, it’s also important to be intentional about not overloading on clubs and organizations. The key is to find a balance where you can be successful academically, have fun socially, and maintain great overall health. You know what you need to function at your best. And, if you find yourself struggling to manage your time, come meet with me! We can discuss goals to get you back on track.

Sport Clubs & Intramurals
In addition to being a great place to work out,
University Recreation (UREC) has a ton of opportunities to play sports competitively or just for fun. Because
Sport Clubs require a greater level of commitment than intramurals, most hold tryouts early in the fall or spring semester. Anyone can play an
intramural sport. Visit
University Park, UREC’s newest outdoor facility, to see the expanded intramural sport fields. You can also
check out equipment from UREC to go camping, canoeing or hiking in the beautiful mountains surrounding JMU.
