Dear Students, 

Are you looking for opportunities to get involved? Are you looking for ways to advocate for your fellow colleagues? What about developing your leadership skills and working together with peers and campus leadership to strengthen our community? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you!

The Office of the Provost is now accepting applications for appointment to the 2021-2022 Provost’s Undergraduate Student Advisory Board. 

The Advisory board is a group of diverse undergraduate students who volunteer to serve as advisors to the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs & Provost. They aim to accurately portray the current realities of the undergraduate experience by articulating the highlights and challenges of being a student at the university. As representatives of the undergraduate population at Illinois, their objective is to convey what could make a successful undergraduate student experience. Board members aim to ensure that fostering an inclusive environment and students' sense of belonging is critically addressed by providing meaningful recommendations to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs & Provost and the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education. 

This year, the advisory board’s primary focus will be improving undergraduate students’ sense of belonging and fostering inclusive campus environments.
