About:

We are the official chapter of the College Republicans at The University of Virginia. We represent the College Republican Federation of Virginia as well as the Republican Party of Virginia. We are known for our excellence in voter contact, campus outreach, hosting numerous high-profile speakers and for training bright political minds. 

 

Throughout the years, we have been very active in several different political campaigns, from local offices to presidential. We as a chapter put in thousands of hours during the last midterm cycle and are going continue to do so moving into the state election cycle. We have hosted several different debates, including last year where we co-hosted the 5th Congressional Primary Debate with the Batten School here at the university. We believe in upholding Republican values and being a direct hub for anyone in the party. From conservatives to moderates, we believe everyone should have a voice because diverse opinions make our party stronger. ​
