NUS Scotland Year in Review: 2016/17

Hi everyone, As Vonnie, Rob and Angela prepare to leave NUS Scotland behind, we take a look at what’s been achieved during the last academic year.

At a national level, we’ve secured wins for students with the introduction of support for postgraduates, free bus travel for apprentices and the retention of bursaries for nursing students.

As a direct result of our 2016 Scottish Elections campaign, we’ve also seen the Scottish Government announce an independent review into the student support system.

At a membership level, we’ve empowered students’ associations across the country providing training, networking opportunities, events and democratic support to help our members strengthen and grow.
