Working together to improve
the student experience

The Simon Fraser Student Society is a student-led organization that represents and advocates for the interests of the 25,000+ undergraduate students at SFU. We are your not-for-profit support network and voice at SFU and provide services and support to make your student life better.

We support. We provide. We enhance.

The SFSS is governed by a student-elected Board of Directors that is elected every spring semester. They are advised by Council, a body representing every faculty and departmental student union across all three SFU campuses. The indispensable SFSS permanent and student staff assist our activities with front-line services and behind-the-scenes support.

All University students who are registered in an undergraduate course or program at the University and have paid a student activity fee are Registered Members of the Society.
