The Surrey Students’ Union: Your Voice, Your Community

University life extends beyond lectures and exams because students build connections and develop skills while finding their place in the community. The Students’ Union at the University of Surrey (Surrey SU) serves as a fundamental force in developing student life by guaranteeing that all student voices are amplified and support for every student is provided.

What is the Surrey Students’ Union?
The Surrey Students’ Union (Surrey SU) operates independently as a student-run organization representing student interests at the University of Surrey. Through academic assistance and social activities the Students’ Union strives to optimize student life. Surrey SU provides support for housing advice, club membership, and university policy enhancement ideas.

How Does It Work?
All Surrey students gain automatic membership in the Students’ Union which functions under governance by elected Full-Time Officers together with assistance from student volunteers. University officers who oversee education, welfare, and activity programs make student input central to all university decisions.

The Union collaborates with university leadership to represent student interests in areas like mental health support and campus facility improvements, as well as academic policy fairness.
