The ANU Students’ Association or ‘ANUSA’ is the peak representative body for all undergraduate students at ANU. ANUSA is made up of forty elected student representatives and a team of professional staff members. We’re responsible for advocating and furthering the interests of our members to the University. All of the approximately 12,000 undergraduate students studying at ANU are members of ANUSA. Our objectives are outlined in our constitution but our three major aims are to: - Promote the welfare and further the interest of our members, in particular to work for quality and equity in higher education - Afford a recognised means of representation for our members both within and outside the university - Promote the social life of our members To put it simply, the three pillars of our organisation are welfare, advocacy and social. Our representatives are elected by the undergraduate student body in elections that take place in semester two each year.
