SGA is a student organization elected by you, the students, to represent the University of Houston student body. As such, SGA is committed to understanding the needs of students and to ensuring their future at the University of Houston is bright.

Through continuous interaction among students, faculty, and administration, the University of Houston SGA helps to ensure that a positive university experience is maintained for all parties concerned. In addition, SGA influences the university's decision-making process by serving as a liaison between the students and governing bodies such as the UH administration, UH system regents, and the Texas State Legislature.

There are several ways to become involved in the Student Government Association. Students are encouraged to run for election to gain a seat in the Student Senate. Also, students can be appointed to any open seat of their college by filling out an application, can be appointed to one of the standing university committees and can even secure a judicial appointment to the student court. For a listing of available seats and positions, please contact the SGA office.
