Reading Students' Union

Reading Students' Union Helping students have the best time at the University of Reading! Students at the University of Reading are automatically members of RUSU.

From the advice staff working in the Advice, Representation & Campaigns centre to the student staff working behind the bar and the Student Officers elected by you to speak up on your behalf, we are all here to help you make the most of your student experience. As such, students are entitled and encouraged to direct the Students’ Union by attending the democracy meetings as well as voting for Stude

nt Officers who represent the student body on campus, locally and nationally. RUSU provides over 100 student representation groups, societies, sports clubs and volunteer groups to help enrich students' experience. The Union also offers independent advice on anything from immigration to finance and housing to education through our Student Advice team. As a charity (No. 1140375), all of the money that is spent in RUSU is reinvested back into the services we provide.
