Every year students have plenty to say about OUSA, and don’t get me wrong, that’s exactly how it should be. But if you’ve got strong opinions about who should be leading and advocating for you in 2026, the best way to make sure you’re heard is to vote!
The Executive isn’t just a group of names on posters. We’re the people making decisions and taking actions that shape your student experience. From clubs and events to advocacy and support. Who you choose directly affects what OUSA does next year.
Voting is quick, simple, and matters more than you think. It opens Monday the 22nd at 9am and closes Thursday the 25th at 4pm. Just head online, find a voting booth, take a few minutes, and back the candidates who you believe represent you and your values.
Even if you didn’t run this time, you still get a say in who’s at the table. Don’t leave it to chance, your vote is how you make sure the Exec reflects what students actually want.
This is your OUSA. Make sure your voice counts. Vote*.
