Be the Next Student Leader
Every spring, Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) holds a student government election to determine student leadership for the following academic year. ASI is excited to announce the 2026 Elections season, which will determine who will be sitting on the Board of Directors for 2026-2027.
ASI is governed by a Board of Directors (BoD) who represents the academic colleges and various student groups of Cal State University, San Bernardino. The students who sit on the Board advocate on behalf of their constituents. The Board of Directors is composed of four (4) executive officers and 13 directors representing the academic colleges, athletes, clubs/orgs, graduate students, international students, on-campus residence halls, students with disabilities, and students at large.
Thank you to all our students who took the time to vote and make your voices heard in this year’s ASI Elections. Your participation helps shape the future of our campus community—please see the official election results below.


Receive $1,000 for Your Club or Organization!
The ASI Howl Grant provides students with a way to directly allocate a portion of the ASI fees to recognized organizations and programs. During the 2026 ASI Election, each student voter has the opportunity to allocate a $1,000 grant to ten (10) different clubs or organizations on campus.

Funding will also provide resources such as student nurse merchandise to promote unity and professional identity within our community. It is very important for us to help create a sense of unity within our program, the stronger our bond, the stronger our resilience to persevere will be.
