Request a New Organization
Students may request CSER eligibility at new churches and non-profits by submitting them to LU Serve for approval. These organizations must be consistent with the mission and values of Liberty University and must be nonprofits with a verifiable 501(c)(3) status, a civic organization, or a local school.
To request a new organization, follow these additional steps:
- Review the Student Policy Handbook.
- Ensure that someone at the church or non-profit, preferably a staff member, can serve as your supervisor.
- Log into your CSER Dashboard.
- Click on “Register for CSER.”
- Select the semester for which you need to register (when you actually complete the CSER, not necessarily for when you need the credit applied).

After you submit your registration, you will receive a confirmation code and e-mail. Keep a copy of the confirmation. Your supervisor will also receive an e-mail within 24 hours letting him know that you have requested him to take the next step in your registration.
