What is the University Students' Council?

The University Students’ Council (USC), the University of Western Ontario (UWO), is a student-led organization that first and foremost exists to advocate for and represent undergraduate students at Western University. Since 1965, we have grown beyond an advocacy organization, becoming one of the largest student governments in Canada and one of the largest nonprofits in London. Each day, we work to support, improve and enhance your student experience, because we believe that students have the power to change the world. The USC is a nonprofit organization incorporated under the Ontario Nonprofit Corporations Act.

Training & Development

One of the pillars of our Strategic Plan is student development. Through our employment and volunteer opportunities we are providing the students at Western with the ability to learn and grow as individuals. We pay you for your time for all mandatory training (i.e. Health and Safety) and are committed to ensuring you receive the skills you need to succeed.

We treat you right!

I have been able to pay my way through school as a part-time staff member and after I graduated I was able to land a full time job here at the USC. Working at the USC has helped me discover my strengths and love for leadership. This job is not only supportive of my passions, but allows me to harness them into applicable skills in the workplace.
