Every year, we make a special festive video for the UofG social media channels and to send out as an e-card to celebrate the holiday season. This year, you could be in it.

Every year, we make a special festive video for the UofG social media channels and to send out as an e-card to celebrate the holiday season.

This year, we’re hoping to top the success of our mannequin challenge video in 2016, and you could help!

Who we’re looking for

We’re looking for current students who won’t make it home, or who won’t get to spend time with their family this holiday.

If you’re not going to be able to celebrate with your loved ones this year, you may be able to celebrate with us, and with each other, at a special festive dinner in a secret location on campus.

The event will be filmed and the footage used to create our seasonal video.

How we’ll choose the participants

There’s always high demand to participate in our official videos, so to make the process of applying fair, everyone who submits an application email to us will be entered into a draw and picked at random. We will respond to all applicants by 10 November.

How to apply

To be eligible to apply, you MUST:

  • be a current UofG student who is unable to spend time with your family this holiday
  • be available to attend our full festive event, which will run from 4pm-9pm (ish!) on Tuesday 5 December
  • be comfortable in front of a camera.

The deadline

Apply by Wednesday 8 November at midnight, sending an email to mrio-recruitmentmarketing@glasgow.ac.uk with the following information:

  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Student ID
  • Email
  • Mobile number
  • Next of kin name
  • Next of kin email address
  • Next of kin contact telephone number
  • Relation of next to kin to you
  • Please also attach a picture of yourself looking festive (Santa hats, fake snowballs, festive jumpers all encouraged!)
