We hope you're enjoying your University of Bristol Open Day so far! We are Bristol Students' Union. We exist to provide Bristol's students with the best student life.
As a Bristol Student, you will automatically become a member of Bristol SU which means you can take advantage of all the activities, events, and services we offer!
Bristol SU is led by students, for students.
We're running several webinars as part of the University's open days. Make sure to join us to find out all about what we do, how you can get involved, and why you'll love your time with us!

Bristol SU is home to over 400 student groups. From Hockey to Hot Air Ballooning, Beer Pong to Big Band, there's something for everyone at Bristol. And if you can't find something you're in to, you can always start your own group! Fancy taking a peek at some of our current student groups? Try our Student Group Finder and find the group that's perfect for you!
Welcome Week is what we call Freshers Week - it's your chance to settle in to the city, make new friends, try something new, and get to know your new city! If you think you might be heading to Bristol in September, we'd love to keep in touch! Sign up now to hear all about our plans for Welcome Week! We'll be revealing our line-up later this Summer - we're so excited to share it with you.
Bristol SU is led by a team of 7 students who have been elected as full-time SU Officers. They're students just like you, who are studying at the University of Bristol, and have taken on the job of a lifetime to lead our organisation. As well as the officer team, you're represented by course reps and faculty reps who are here to champion your educational experience, JCR reps to support you in university halls, and a whole host of other student leaders including club captains, student group presidents, and Network chairs.
We have 18 Networks at Bristol SU - each designed to bring together like-minded students to campaign on issues important to you. For example, we have a Black Students' Network, Women's Network, LGBT+ Network, International Students' Network, and many more!
Did you know that Bristol SU has two bars, a swimming pool, a gig and events venue, two theatres, an SU loft, and an SU Living Room? We have bases across campus, in both The Richmond Building and in Senate House. Spaces are available for all students - we can't wait to welcome you in person soon!

Just Ask is our dedicated academic advice team. We want students to enjoy their time at Bristol by taking advantage of all of the events and activities we offer. We also want you to do really well in your degree. Our team is here to support you through the university's academic policies and procedures. If you find yourself needing support with your degree, we'll be here to help.
