Call for Nominations

The College Nominating Committee (CNC) is charged with making recommendations for College elected and/or selected positions annually.

Available positions with a starting term of June 1, 2026, will be announced June 2025.

Important Application Dates

The application link will be available from August 8, 2025, through November 7, 2025.

Candidates must be active ACR Members and meet additional criteria as outlined in the list of candidate qualifications. Please complete the following prior to beginning your application:

  • Review position qualifications and time commitments.
  • Log in to My ACR to review and complete your profile.
  • Read the ACR Electioneering Policy.

Seek guidance from your chapter or cnc@acr.org if you have questions regarding your qualifications.

Applications must include:

  • Complete online candidate application form
  • Two letters of recommendation

  • Recent photograph
  • Current Disclosure of Interest

Begin your application as early as possible to ensure that you meet the deadline as it is the responsibility of the applicant to complete all sections of the application. Several sections of the application require follow-up or verification by the applicant or others, which cannot be guaranteed to be turned around within 24 hours.

Letters of Recommendation

At least two current ACR members who are not members of the Board of Chancellors must endorse your application. Any member with direct knowledge of your achievements may write a letter of recommendation. Use the membership directory to obtain email addresses with which to contact your selected endorsers. For assistance, contact cnc@acr.org.

Chapter Verification

Applicants must obtain verification of their councilor status from their chapter for the position of Council Steering Committee (CSC) member or Councilor/Alternate Councilor status for the position of CNC member for the term nominated (through May 31, 2028). Look up chapter leadership contact information on the ACR Chapters web page.

For assistance, contact chapters@acr.org.

ACR Annual Meeting

The 2026 ACR Annual Meeting will be held May 2-6 in Washington, DC.

Candidates are required to attend the annual ACR meeting as well as to give a two-minute speech before council. Should extenuating circumstances prevent a candidate from attending and making a live in-person speech, the candidate may remain on the ballot but forfeits the opportunity to address council. In these circumstances, the candidate must request to be excused by the CNC via email.
