The next Graduate and Professional Student-Elected Trustee election will be held in Fall 2024.

Student-elected trustees alternate between graduate and professional and undergraduate students annually. The graduate and professional student-elected trustee is chosen in the fall of even-numbered years for a two-year term.

To be eligible, prospective candidates must:

  • Candidates must be enrolled full-time in one of the campus-based Graduate or Professional Schools.
  • Candidates must not be on disciplinary probation or suspension.
  • Candidates must be, and expect to remain, registered in good-standing in their current college or school (and in residence at the Ithaca, Geneva, or Cornell Tech campuses) through the end of the two-year term.
