The SU Bath ranked 10th best Students' Union in the UK and #1 in the South West!
We're delighted to share that The SU Bath has been named 10th Best University Students' Union in the UK in the StudentCrowd Awards 2026, as well as being recognised as the highest-ranked Students' Union in the South West. The rankings are based entirely on verified student reviews, making this recognition a direct reflection of our students' experiences and feedback.
In our recent SU Survey, 82% of respondents strongly agreed or agreed with the statement:"The SU has had a positive impact on my experience at the University of Bath." It's fantastic to see that sentiment reflected in these national rankings. We couldn't achieve this without our amazing student leaders, staff, officers and wider student community, who work together to make The SU Bath so special.
We're also delighted to have climbed the rankings in the Clubs and Societies category, placing 16th this year. Students highlighted the huge increase in events offered through our student groups, and we're continually blown away by what they create for their members. Every year, they raise the bar even higher.
We also want to take a moment to recognise the fantastic achievements of the University, which was ranked 14th overall in the Best University category, 5th for Careers Service and 3rd for Job Prospects. These are excellent achievements and reflect the impact of our shared efforts to enhance student employability, including the introduction of the Bath Award this year.
