Take the first steps to becoming the voice of GSA students by nominating yourself for Student President or Vice President of Education at the GSA Students' Association.  

Any student can run for the roles. You just need to get in touch with gsasa@gsa.ac.uk from today (February 10th) until March 2nd to register your interest.

But what would I even be running for...

The President and VP work together to represent GSA students by providing you with a voice and a seat at the table when it comes to the school's decision making. While there are a few key differences between the two roles, they work as a team to fight for your interests. And they're both full-time jobs with salaries of £26,913.90!

The Elections will be held from March 31st, starting at 10am, and finishing at 2pm on April 2nd. If elected, you will officially begin on July 31st. 

(P.S. You might occasionally hear about us talking about Sabbatical Officers, but don't worry, that's just another term for the two roles)

What are the differences...

The Student President leads the Students' Association by spearheading campaigns and student-led initiatives on campus and beyond. They are the lead student representative on the GSA's Board of Governors and chair our Board of Trustees. 

Meanwhile, the Vice President of Education is the main advocate for your academic needs. They strive to influence education policies by working with Class Reps and other students to address your concerns.
