’ UNION UCL

At Students’ Union UCL, we’re making more happen. The Union is made of all kinds of people from all kinds of places. You’ll never have a better chance to throw yourself into something new and finding an opportunity that fits you, however big or small, is what it’s all about.

The Open Days are a great opportunity for you to see how we make more happen as part of your life at UCL.

The Union offers all sorts of ways to discover something that will become a part of who you are. Get up on stage. Be creative. Lead a movement. Push yourself further than you imagined. Make sure to visit our stand in the Wilkins Building at the Student Services Fair (map ref D3 ) to explore the endless opportunities.

What’s so special about Students’ Union UCL?

When some students think of “the union” they think it’s as a building with student bars. We have bars and cafes too, but the Students’ Union UCL is more than a space, it’s a service which you can be involved in. You can be an academic rep, vote in elections, read Pi media – it’s all Students’ Union UCL.

Very few Unions have a volunteering team with as many opportunities as ours. There is an incredible level of support for volunteers, with every kind of project you could think of and even the chance to start your own.

Come and speak to us at the Student Services Fair and meet our Sabbatical Officers, Student Societies Representatives as well as Advice and Volunteering staff.

Students’ Union UCL at the Open Day

//� Visit our team including societies and Sabbatical Officers at the Student Services Fair in the Jeremy Bentham Room

(map ref D2 )

//� Join the “The essential guide to life at UCL” tours led by students highlighting the Students’ Union on campus

//� Attend our talks to get a feel for student life outside of UCL lecture theatres (see page 27 for more details)
