Advisory Board Application

The Advisory Board Selection Committee seeks to fill 8 spots this cycle. New members would serve from January 2026 to December 2028.

The Foundation recognizes that it is important to have an Advisory Board that reflects the diversity of the scholars it represents, including university attended, gender, ethnicity, age, and career path as well as life experiences. Each of these aspects ensures a wide range of perspectives and skills to provide better advice, drive innovative and creative solutions, and enhance decision making in the best interest of the Terry Scholar Community. The selection committee strives to ensure that it nominates applicants who will be active participants on the Advisory Board as well as representatives of our community’s diversity.

Members of the Terry Scholar Alumni Advisory Board serve three year terms, with members rotating on and off in January each year. The Advisory Board meets three times (virtually) each year, with opportunities for committee activities in between. The meetings are one hour each, and time commitment for discussion committees varies per member but is generally no more than two to four hours per month.

Terry Alumni who have been out of undergrad at least three years are eligible to apply.

The Advisory Board Selection Committee will consider your involvement in Terry Foundation and Terry Scholar Alumni Association events since graduation. You will also have the opportunity to provide written statements about other ways you have given back and why you would like to serve on the Advisory Board. See the Advisory Board Terms of Commitment for more detailed information.

You can learn more about the Advisory Board by attending an information session (see below) or by reaching out to a current Advisory Board Member on Terry Connect.
