Alumni-Elected Regents Process
In June 2016, Baylor welcomed the first Alumni-elected Regents to service on the Board. Alumni-elected Regents serve 3-year terms; however, the 2016 appointees were installed with 1-, 2- and 3-year terms to allow the election process to commence. The process outlined on this site governs the annual nomination, review, and selection of Alumni-elected Regents. As Alumni-elected Regents complete their terms, the graduates of Baylor University will elect or re-elect Alumni-elected Regents following the timeline below:
| August - October | Nominations accepted via nomination form (or via submission through official University advisory groups) |
| October - December | Nominee submissions reviewed and candidates selected |
| January | Public announcement of final candidates and their credentials for service |
| February 2-11 | Baylor graduates vote in the election of Alumni-elected Regents |
| February | Public announcement of election results following the February Board meeting. |
| June 1 | Alumni-elected Regent begins service |
In the 2025-26 election cycle, nominees were accepted for one Alumni-elected Regent seat. Three candidates were selected from the nominees. The candidate with the largest number of alumni votes was selected as Alumni-elected Regent.
