RUNNING FOR THE BOARD OF STUDENT REPRESENTATIVES
POSITIONS ELECTED IN THE NEXT ELECTION
Later in the Fall Semester, position descriptions will be posted here. Be sure to attend one of the information sessions to find out more about the positions.
If you wish to run for one of these positions, you must fill out the nomination form and submit it before the deadline. The nomination form will be posted below closer to the opening of the Nomination Period. You can scroll down to find the nomination form or pick up a paper copy in the SRC office at that time.
To be nominated, you will need at least 20 students to support your nomination (other than yourself). On the form, you will need the name, student number, and BU email address of the students, as well as each student’s signature. It is up to YOU to make sure that their information is legible and correct. Once your nomination is received, your nominators will be emailed by the SRC Elections office, and they must reply.
