This Student Summit is an opportunity for UK undergraduate students to directly influence how we tackle access and participation and ensure student success at BU.
Access and Participation refers to the initiatives and policies aimed at ensuring equal educational opportunities for all students, particularly focusing on supporting and increasing the enrolment and success of those from underrepresented or disadvantaged backgrounds. It's about creating a diverse, inclusive environment where every student has the chance to succeed, regardless of their background.
Spaces are limited so make sure to sign up as soon as possible by completing our online form. Our goal is to ensure diverse representation, so we’ll ask a few questions to understand your background. Selected participants will be notified from Friday 9 February 2024.
Why Your Participation Matters?

- This is your platform to speak up about what access and participation means to you. Every opinion counts in shaping a more equitable university environment

What's in It for You?
