The Office of Student Life delivers a wide range of programs and services designed to meet the co-curricular needs of Bowie State University's diverse student population. 

We design and implement comprehensive and accessible programs, activities and services, which are intellectual, social and cultural in nature.  These services enhance student growth and development and promote student involvement on campus.  

Located in the Wiseman Student Center, the Office of Student Life serves as a resource for students to learn how to get involved with student groups on campus, gain information on Greek Life or the Student Government Association, discover the many services available to commuter students and find out about upcoming programs and special events.
