Towson University (TU) is a campus that votes. The Campus Votes Project designated TU as a Voter Friendly Campus.
Students share voter engagement resources at Party to the Polls.
The National Study of Learning, Voting and Engagement (NSLVE) report showed that more than 85% of TU students were registered to vote in the 2020 Presidential
Election. The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge presented TU with the following awards:
Highly Established Action Plan
Campus Champion Award for Best Action Plan
New Most Engaged Campuses for College Student Voting Recognition
Best in Class for a 4-year Public Institution
TU is also proud to serve as a polling location and to provide access to a mail-in
ballot drop box at the South Campus Pavilion.

TU Votes Coalition and other campus partners, promotes active citizenship among members
