Become a candidate?

How awesome that you are interested in becoming a candidate in the Council Elections! Here are instructions for how to stand as a candidate. The only thing you need to be a candidate is enthusiasm to act as an advocate in and for our student community!

Ponder whether you want to join an Electoral Alliance or stand as a nonpartisan candidate. The current council members and their affiliations can be found on the Council-subpage. Electoral Alliances and Electoral Circles announced to the Central Election Committee by 3 September 2025 at 16:00 will be updated to the subpage Electoral Alliances and Circles with their contact information, making it easy for you to contact Alliances you might be interested in!
