Senate

Senate Directory

Senators are elected to serve their term the following year in the spring semester. They must campaign and win the popular vote, much like the Student Government Association President and Vice President. Once the new academic year begins, open Senate seats are available for appointment. More information regarding appointments can be found here.

Get Appointed to the Senate

Applicants must have a UNT GPA of at least 2.4, be in good academic and disciplinary standing with the university, and be enrolled in a minimum of six (6) credit hours per semester during their term of office. Candidates must also obtain either 25 petition signatures from students within their own college, or 50 signatures from students in a different college or from the student body at-large. After passing the eligibility review, candidates will appear before the Senate, which will approve or deny the appointment.
