Dear Graduate and Professional Students,
Welcome back to Spring Quarter! “Good luck and have fun! (GLHF)” as you learn through your teaching, research, and service, your capstones, theses, and dissertation projects, and good conversations with friends and colleagues. For those planning to graduate, you’re almost there!

The Student Regent is a Washington resident appointed by the Governor to serve on the UW Board of Regents for a one-year term from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024 (or until the next Student Regent is appointed). The Student Regent will receive a scholarship for tuition costs of their program; the Student Regent may accept additional UW employment during their regency.
The Student Regent Selection Committee, composed of current student leaders across all three UW campuses, will forward 3-5 finalists to Governor Inslee, who will then choose one student for appointment.
A description of the position and the application is attached. The content to be submitted is on pages 3-4. The application deadline is April 14, 2023 at 11:59 p.m. If selected for an interview, you will be asked to schedule a Zoom interview on April 24 or April 26.
