Oxford SU believes that the University of Oxford must lead the way in creating an environment where current and future students are governed by fairness; where everyone has an equal opportunity to flourish in their pursuit of education. We believe that education is the foundation for the future. The better the education, the better the future for all of us.
Being a student at the University of Oxford brings unique privileges, opportunities and challenges. Oxford SU is committed to empowering its students; we will ensure that their voice is listened to at every level of the University and is a catalyst for positive change. We embrace the entire student experience, from the grandly institutional to the intensely personal. We are entirely devoted to the wants and needs of all students, current and future.
Our current strategic aims focus on; supporting and empowering Common Rooms, adding value to the College experience; being the representative voice of the students of Oxford, guaranteeing every student’s voice is at the heart of what we do; and bringing people together, showcasing the community at Oxford and ensuring students get the support they deserve. We believe in making the University of Oxford a better place, to the benefit of our students and society at large.

Our strategy contains 3 key goals:
Education
We want to support and encourage all students to get the most out of the academic experience at the University of Oxford.
Wellbeing
