Description
Currently, we assign a user automatically to an institution based on their email domain, and if that org has SSO, we offer to sign up with SSO:
They can choose to create an account without SSO, but if they are part of a different org that has SSO, they'd be missing out on it. Instead, we want to offer them an option to change their organization and try again.
My suggested path is another link on that page to indicate you have a different organization. If they click it, they can a page like the register page below but with the Institution drop-down option as well. From their they can add their correct institution and click Continue.
If that org has SSO, they'll be brought to a page like the top one for their correct org SSO, and if they don't have SSO, then they'll get the regular account creation page.

Start by locating the registration page and the automatic email-domain organization matching and SSO decision point. Add the alternate-organization path described in the issue, including institution selection and continuation into the correct SSO or regular account-creation flow; done means users can recover from an incorrect automatic match.
