EC Students' Association is here to represent all students at Edinburgh College, which means what we do adapts to suit the needs of students.

Mostly it's about ensuring students have the best experience at college. That can be working on big issues that affect everyone, like how much money you have in your pocket. It can also be about commenting on the standards of facilities, teaching spaces, or the quality of food on campus.

The EC Students' Association tag line is "Powered by students, driven by values, committed to better" and that really is our mantra. The elected student officers (Adam, Mary, and Sukinder) are the student voice when it comes to representing you in and out of the boardroom, but it doesn’t stop there. We work on a one-to-one basis with many students who walk through our office doors, on a range of issues impacting their student experience.

If you feel like you need help, pop into any of our offices or drop us an email and we will do what we can to help. Don’t be shy, EC Students' Association exists to make things better for you as a student!

We also run lots of activities throughout the year that are fun and all about giving you great experiences & opportunities, such as:

EC Students' Association can make big changes, but we're a small team representing thousands of students, and we can't do it without your help. So what are you waiting for?! Come and get involved, volunteer, take part and have fun!
