It is recommended to save your answers in a word document before submitting. For those who prefer to submit their nomination by email, click here to download the PDF form.

Once submitted, you will receive an email confirmation. If you do not receive this confirmation, please contact Kathy McKinley, Assistant University Secretary at Kathy.McKinley@carleton.ca or 613-520-2600 x3386. Otherwise, the Senate office will follow up on your application in the coming weeks.
