How to run for election
You must be a fully enrolled SOAS student to run for Student Rep.
The nomination period to fill vacancies is to be confirmed. Fully enrolled students will be able make their nomination anytime until then.
Once you are fully enrolled you should be able to see the posts open to you. The form to make a nomination is below. Once you submit a nomination you will get to a page where you can optionally add a photo and manifesto of up to 200 words.
We have two video guides to demonstrate the nomination process:
- How to nominate yourself
- Adding and amending your manifesto
If you are fully enrolled - and have received your 'Confirmation of Enrolment Letter' - but are not able to access any part of the election below, please use this enquiry form
How to vote
Once voting opens logged-in enrolled students will be able to see their candidates and to vote. You will be asked to order the candidates in order of preference. Again, if you have any access problem or error message, use the enquiry form or email reps@soas.ac.uk with a screenshot of the message.
Instructions will appear on the ballot.
