Elections


Elections for the JCR committee are held every Michaelmas and they decide who will sit on the JCR for the upcoming calendar year. Any undergraduate student at Christ's can run for a position on the JCR, although some roles have specific requirements. For example, people running for Women's Officer must not identify solely as male, and to run for President you must have attended at least three JCR meetings.

Email the President if you have any queries or if you are interested in running for a role and want more information.
