The Student Government Association (SGA) is an elected group of students representing the needs of Motlow's student body, led by a president elected by the entire student body. Each Motlow campus has its own elected SGA officials consisting of a vice president, sophomore and freshman senators, and other appointed officials.

The SGA application is available every February of the following academic year. For senator or other leadership roles please attend SGA meetings, if interested.
SGA represents the student body at events on Motlow's campuses, including the college's Leadership Council. SGA is involved in planning and executing events on every campus, from Weeks of Welcome to finals week celebrations. All Motlow students are encouraged to attend SGA meetings and voice their concerns or ideas.
SGA receives its funding from Student Activity Fees. These are fees that students pay along with their registration fees. You are welcome to have input into how your fees are allocated. The only way to do that is to get involved. Go to a meeting, volunteer for an event, vote for your favorite candidate, or take part in any SGA activity.
