What the ASI President and Board of Directors Do 

The ASI President represents the general student body and acts as the official representative of ASI to the Cal Poly administration and the general public. 

The Board of Directors is comprised of representatives from each academic college who serve as the official voice of students regarding student advocacy efforts and ASI corporate activity. 

Can I Still Run in the ASI Elections? 

Any student who wishes to run for candidacy and did not file or submit a candidate packet prior to the filing deadline can still run by filing as a write-in candidate. Write-in candidates’ names will not appear on the ballot and will need to be written in. Learn more about filing as a write-in candidate for ASI President and Board of Directors on the ASI Recruitment and Elections website.
