Election Rules
If you have any questions about elections, big or small, please email citysa@cityofglasgowcollege.ac.uk.
When you nominate yourself, you’ll need to write a manifesto. This is a small personal statement that talks about why you want to run for the role and what you would hope to achieve. This is your chance to tell other students why they should vote for you.
All manifestos must be uploaded to your candidate profile by 5pm on Thursday, 9th October.
If you have any problems uploading your manifesto, please contact citysa@cityofglasgowcollege.ac.uk before the deadline.
