Governance
The GSA is a corporation established under the province's Post-Secondary Learning Act as the official representative body for more than 8,000 graduate students at the University of Alberta.
Governance
All full- and part-time registered graduate students (including students in recognized joint graduate/undergraduate degree programs) who pay GSA membership fees are considered members of the GSA. As a member of the GSA, you can:
- Access GSA services
- Vote in all GSA elections
- Seek nominations to any of the GSA's representative positions and
- Attend open sessions of GSA Council meetings as a non-voting observer.

Governance and Accountability Framework
All graduate students are members of the GSA and, ultimately, all of the groups below are accountable to them. GSA Directly-Elected Officers and GSA Standing Committees report monthly to GSA Council, and GSA Councillors then share information from those meetings with the graduate students they represent at the departmental level.
