If you need any help at all you can contact us at sa.admin@anu.edu.au, 02 6125 2444, or fill in our online contact form.

You might be aware that the ANU Students’ Association has reached an agreement with ANU to become the single student union for all ANU students; undergraduate, postgraduate and Higher Degree by Research (HDR). This enables ANUSA to continue providing services and representation for postgraduate students after PARSA winds up its services and representation functions on 30 June.

Read below for more information about accessing ANUSA services and programs.

This year's Bush Week will be open to all students and we look forward to providing a diverse range of events for postgraduate students from Semester 2 and onwards.

We will keep you up to date with information through email newsletters, as well as through our Facebook page, Instagram and website.
