Student groups at Columbia span a wide range of interests including fraternities, sororities, club sports and student government organizations.

There are estimated to be over 400 recognized undergraduate student groups. In addition, there naturally also exists an unknown number of unrecognized student groups, which have not pursued recognition, or perhaps failed to achieve it.

Student groups wishing to obtain recognition, and thus funding and other benefits, must receive this from one of the established governing boards. In addition, Columbia Athletics (not a governing board) plays a role in administering the varsity sports.
