I cannot begin to express how crucial a role the Student Member plays through their advocacy and communications of innovative solutions from students directly to the University’s leadership. Excitingly, this year marks the 40th year of the role’s existence.
Please know that to apply to the role, you must meet these criteria:
Full-time undergraduates entering their final year of study (graduating in 2024) are eligible to apply.
Full-time graduate students in at least their second year of study OR who previously attended UVA as an undergraduate are also eligible.
Students must have at least a 2.5 GPA.
Kind regards,
Lily A. Roberts Student Member of the Board of Visitors | 2022-2023
