How to Become an SGA Officer

SGA elections are held during the Spring Semester of each academic year. An email will be sent to all students to inform the classes about positions that are open and deadlines. 

​

1. Attend at least 1 SGA meeting at your campus in the year preceding the election you want to run in.

​

2. Talk to current SGA Officers to gain perspective about what each position's responsibilities look like day to day.

​

3. Read through the SGA Constitution.

​

4. Receive election eligibility approval from the Student Services Coordinators.

​

5. Write a Letter of Intent (LOI) that is anywhere from a few sentences to a full page.

     i. Make sure to specify why you are interested in a specific position.

     ii. Include programs you want to grow or actions you want to take while serving.

     iii. Really not sure what to write? Reach out to current officers to see their previous LOIs.

​​

6. Submit your LOI and proof of approved election eligibility to your campus' SGA Executive 1st VP.

​

7. Remind your friends and peers to vote!
