    2021 Student Elections

    The Nomination Period for the 2021 Fall Elections commenced September 15 and closed September 21, 2021.  This year 6 student candidates put their name forward for the 2 student positions on the Board of Governors. The Voting Period for the 21/FA Board of Governors election is now underway and runs from Thursday, September 23 until 4 PM Wednesday, September 29, 2021. This site has been created to provide student candidates with the opportunity to post some information about themselves to introduce themselves to the student body.

    Only 3 nominations were received for the 4 student positions on Education Council and only 3 nominations were received for the 12 Student Society positions so the nomination period for Education Council and Student Society has been extended until September 29th at 4PM.  Any student interested in running for one of these positions can obtain a Nomination Form from the NVIT front desk at either campus or on the mynvit portal.
