Funding
The Students’ Association is funded through a portion of your Student Levy – a compulsory part of your university fees.
For more information about the levy, watch this handy guide below and visit the UC website.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Even if you choose to opt out of UCSA membership, you still have to pay the full Student Levy. There's no financial advantage to not being a UCSA member.
The Student Life and Services Advisory Board advises the Vice-Chancellor on how the Levy would be best spent each year. The UCSA is funded only for the services it provides students – like advocacy and welfare, student events, and the dental scheme. The remainder of the Levy is allocated to UC departments and other providers.
