How often are elections held?

The normal term of office for elected officers is four years, but with varying cycles, meaning that a large number of elections are held each year. Some groups of representatives are elected for a year at a time.

Most elections are held in a short space of time in the autumn semester. Elections are normally conducted electronically.
