About the Summit

Improve Your SG & Make New Friends Amid the Beautiful Skyline and Bright Lights of the Big City

Arrive early or extend your stay to experience all that New York has to offer. Take a taxi or subway into Manhattan, then explore Times Square, catch a Broadway show, and sample the Big Apple’s world-famous cuisine. Take a ferry to the Statue of Liberty, tour the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, catch a basketball or hockey game at Madison Square Garden, or see the bright lights of the big city skyline from the 100th floor of the famed Empire State Building. Any SG leader from any school, no matter what state you’re from, is welcome to attend!

Student Government officers, members, and advisors from colleges and universities of all types and sizes are invited to the Spring Student Government Summit, one of the largest Student Government conferences in America each year. Usually, about 200-250 students and administrators from 25-35 institutions attend, representing 15-20 states, with roughly equal numbers of community colleges, private institutions, and public institutions.
