Elections

The annual election of executive, judicial and senatorial officers for SGA takes place each spring term. Read more about the 2026 SGA election cycle below.

SGA Election Commission

The SGA election is coordinated by an independent group of undergraduate students known as the “SGA Election Commission.” This is an impartial group of students responsible for all facets of the SGA election including marketing, promotion of candidates, election administration and for enforcement of the SGA election policy. Any questions that candidates or prospective candidates have regarding the election process should be sent to the election commission. Throughout the election cycle, SGA election commissioners hold weekly office hours. The SGA Election Commission can be contacted via email at .

Running for SGA

Any person seeking an SGA elected office must be a full time fee-paying undergraduate student with at least 2.500 cumulative GPA. To run, a petition must be signed out from the SGA administrative assistant in the SGA office, University Union, room 263. Students may sign out a petition to run for the position of president, vice president, treasurer, attorney general, senator or justice. Petitions require the signatures of 200 undergraduate TU students. Petitions will be available for pick up from the SGA office (University Union Suite 263) beginning at 9:00am on Monday, March 23, 2026 and are due by 4:00pm on Friday, April 3, 2026.

Voting

Only currently enrolled TU undergraduate students are eligible to vote in the SGA election. All voting will take place on Involved@TU and can be done via computer or mobile device, whether on-campus or off-campus. During the voting period, the election commission will host polling locations across campus to encourage students to vote on their phones.
