About the National Student Congress

At the National Student Congress, student delegates representing USSA's member campuses assemble to pass the annual legislative action agenda, elect to the student Board of Directors and officers, and convene the region, caucus, and affiliate meeting spaces.  It is a wonderful opportunity for students to network with peers from around the country and have an official voice in the leadership and legislative priority of the organization turned to by Congress, the White House, and the Department of Education on issues impacting college students.

The National Student Congress is held at a different member campus each summer, rotating region by region. This year, the National Student Congress will be held at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) in Tallahassee, Florida from July 22 to the 27th.

Delegation Registration

After successfully registering a delegation, delegation leaders will be e-mailed individual registration forms from USSA Trainings Director Adriana Cortes Luna.
