Going to university isn’t just about getting a degree.
There is an entire lifestyle that comes with being a student. Although studying is a big part of it, it is also about the overall experience; trying new things, being adventurous and making the most of the opportunities available to you.
That’s where RGU Students' Union comes in. Our goal is to make your time here the best it can be. We offer a wide range of services, activities and projects to get involved with. Being a student opens the door to countless experiences — joining sports teams or societies, taking part in trips or events, volunteering, fundraising, or simply building new friendships. Whatever you’re interested in, we’re here to support you, because students are always our top priority.
So, how do we do all of this?
It’s simple: the SU is run by students, for students. Every year, elections are held to choose a team of student leaders whose job is to ensure you get the most out of your university experience. Most of our funding comes from the University, but we also generate income through our events, selling merchandise, and working with brands and businesses — and everything we make goes straight back into supporting students.
Beyond activities and events, we’re also here to represent your views. We act as your voice, raising your concerns and ideas not just within the University, but on a national level too.
With our support behind you, we’re confident you’ll have an incredible student experience.
Want to get involved?
The SU thrives when students get involved, and we’re always looking for enthusiastic individuals to join in. There are plenty of roles throughout the year — from becoming a Class Rep or Student School Officer, to helping welcome new students on the Welcome Week Team, to getting involved in volunteering projects. Find something that interests you and help us make student life at RGU even better.
