The 2023-2024 Michigan Collegiate Student Advisory Task Force is accepting applications through September 15. The task force, which works to improve youth voter engagement, is a nonpartisan initiative of the Michigan Department of State in partnership with Campus Vote Project.

Key Points:

    • Applicants must be currently enrolled as an undergraduate or graduate student in a college or university in Michigan.
    • A total of 20 to 30 students from around the state will be selected to serve.
    • No more than two students will represent any one school.
    • Students set to graduate during the tenure of the task force will not be considered.

The task force:

    • Established by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson in 2019.
    • It brings together students from across the state.
    • Members serve as liaisons between the Department of State, their student body, school administrators, and peers.
    • The group advises on the unique experiences and barriers for student voters.
