Student Representatives

Student Representatives are here to support you! They serve as a direct link between students and the Executive Department at the Academy of Art University and are your go-to resource for any department-related concerns, questions, or suggestions.

Throughout the semester, Student Representatives attend council meetings to voice your feedback on important topics such as Brightspace, financial aid, campus safety, transportation, and upcoming university events.

These representatives play a key role in maintaining clear communication between students and the administration. Past cohorts have helped address issues like the balance between on-site and online workloads, transportation challenges, and contributed valuable input to the university’s strategic planning.

If you’re interested in joining the Student Representative Council, please reach out to your department director or administrator. For a list of current representatives, see below.
