Leave your mark at ASU!

Being involved in a University Board and Committee allows students an opportunity to shape the ASU experience, share their ideas, and represent their peers.

University Boards and Committees constitute a branch of the Associated Students of ASU and are directly appointed by the ASASU Council of Presidents (COP). Each University Board and Committee is made up of members from each campus and shares reports and updates directly to their USG or GPSA President.

Common Questions and Answers

Am I qualified to apply? If (1) your cumulative GPA meets the minimum ASASU requirements of 2.33, (2) you are in good academic standing, and (3) you are an in-person undergraduate enrolled in at least 6 credit hours or am in-person graduate student who is continuously enrolled, then you are qualified to apply!

NOTE: Incoming freshmen can apply and participate in any board and committee, except the University Hearing Board. Also, at this time these positions are only for in-person students.

Will I hear back that my application has been received? Yes, you will receive a message once you hit submit that your application has been received. After that, it can take several weeks to be notified if you have been accepted. Please review the other questions and answers for the remainder of the process.

Will I hear back if I am not appointed? Yes, but not until after all nominations have been selected. Which can take several weeks as the applications and applicants are reviewed on an ongoing basis. You most likely will not hear until September if you have not been appointed.

How long does the process take? Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis. All appointments for positions will be filled and applicants will be notified if appointed between application submission and August/September via their asu email.

Who is responsible for making/approving the appointments? Each Undergraduate Student Government President along with the Graduate and Professional Student Association President is responsible for reviewing the applicants for their respective campus. Their nominations are then sent to the V.P. of EOSS for final approval. Upon approval, students will be notified of their appointment via their asu email.

Is it a rolling process or is there a deadline? Applications are received on a rolling basis until all positions are filled, applicants who apply earlier will have priority.

How many University Boards and Committees can I apply to? We recommend to serve on no more than three committees and/or boards.

What is the time commitment? The time commitment will average 1-2 meetings per month totaling 2-4 hours a month. While most Boards and Committees will not begin meeting until August, some may ask for summer commitments.

Where do the meetings take place? Many University Boards and Committees meet at the Tempe location with call-in and teleconference options.

Is there training to be on the boards and committees? Yes! You will be asked to enroll in a canvas training that all members must complete. The canvas training site is also the place where you will receive communication and updates about boards and committees in general.

If you are part of the University Hearing Board, there will be a mandatory in-person training that you will be required to attend in order to participate in any upcoming hearing.
