Clubs, Societies and FSAs

The Bond University Student Association has a wide range of affiliated cultural and sporting clubs & societies. Becoming involved in a club or society at Bond is a great way to get involved in university life and extend your experience at university far beyond the confines of your degree. There are over 60 active clubs and societies operating within the university, there really is something for everyone to get involved in.

Each semester the Student Association organises Club Sign-On Day which is held on the Friday of Week 1 from 10am - 2pm. Club Sign-On Day provides students with an opportunity to learn more about the different clubs at Bond and to join your favourite clubs for the semester. Joining a club at Bond is easy; all you have to do is pay your S.A.M. fee which gives you unlimited and discounted access to all of Bond's clubs and societies.

Clubs and societies run numerous events and activities each semester. These events are open to all students who have paid their semestral activities membership fee. Clubs organise activities ranging from party nights, pub crawls, dinners, camping trips, retreats, sporting games, training, weekly competitions, fitness programmes, prayer sessions, comedy nights, plays, forums, charity events and of course LOADS of BBQs!

Supporting Our Clubs

BUSA supports clubs in a number of ways, including:

Funding
