Each graduate program at the University of Texas at Austin is represented by a primary and alternative delegate. Graduate programs have one vote to cast on legislation regarding student finances, academic affairs, health initiatives, and more. They also relay to their peers information on special events and presentations. Feel free to contact your graduate program representative if you have questions on the latest GSA work. If no name is listed, we do not have a representative from your program, and we'd love to have you join us!
