How Nominations Work

Nominations is a period of time when students can submit a nomination to become a candidate in our student elections. We let our members know when nominations are open by publishing our Notice of Nominations.

Read The Election Notice

Check out our Notice of Nominations for all our open positions, eligibility criteria, and deadlines.

Make Your Nomination

If you've seen a position you're interested in - you'll need to make a nomination to become a candidate. You can do this on our Notice of Nominations. Note that there are deadlines and eligibility criteria to meet - we'll notify you if your nomination has been approved or rejected via email. 

Recommend a friend

If you know someone you think would be perfect for one of our roles, you can let us know by filling out our Recommend a Friend form via our Notice of Nominations and we'll reach out to them. Important - this is not a nomination - they'll need to do that themselves.

Submit Your Manifesto

As part of the nomination process, you can submit a manifesto - this is a written statement that tells voters all about you and why you are right for the job. Don't stress if you're not a naturally born writer - check out our Manifesto Writing Tips webpage for guidance.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email elections@uwtsd.ac.uk.
