What Is the SGA?

The Student Government Association (SGA) is your elected voice - your representation at the University of Montevallo. Participation in this important organization is open to all students. Visit the SGA Office to find out how you can become involved. Our offices are located on the second floor of the Student Union Building (SUB).

Your SGA is divided into three branches:

     Executive Branch (Student Body President, Vice President, and Cabinet)
     Legislative Branch (Student Senate)
     Judicial Branch (Justice Council)
