New to London?

Everything you need to know about Your Students’ Union (SU) can be found here. For each intake, we put together a range of events and activities to welcome you to campus and help kickstart your university experience with unforgettable memories.

We also offer a range of support services to help you settle in. Whether you need advice on housing, finances, or academic issues when your course starts, our independent, confidential advice service is here to help.

Events for the next intake can be found on this page so see when the next ones are and add them to your calendar! In the meantime, there’s loads of other information here that you should find helpful, no matter when you arrive.

 

So, What is the SU?

The SU exists to enhance your experience as a student. We're independent from the university, non-profit and we’re here right from the moment you start through to graduation with events, opportunities, advice, campaigns and more.

If you are a Coventry University Group student, you’re automatically a member of the SU. Here’s just a quick snapshot of what we offer, and how you can get involved:

We’re run by students for students. You can give feedback via Student Reps, apply to be a Rep yourself, or stand in our annual elections to lead the SU in a full or part-time officer role.

Join one of our societies to try something new or continue something you love while making new friends. Can’t find what you’re looking for? Start a new society or adopt an old one!

Our independent Advice Service provides free, confidential advice on housing, finance and academic issues' as well as wider support around safety, wellbeing and sexual health.

We facilitate student communities and run campaigns for positive change, helping to ensure your university experience is inclusive, safe and supportive.
