What We Do
The University of Prince Edward island Student Union is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of students on campus and enriching the UPEI experience. We proudly provide several services throughout our campus that work towards this goal. From student and society funding to health insurance to our volunteer match-maker program, we’ve got you covered!
We acknowledge that the University of Prince Edward Island Student Union is located on unceded Mi’kmaq territory. Epekwitk is covered by the historic Treaties of Peace and Friendship. We pay our respects to the Indigenous Mi’kmaq People who have occupied this island for over 12,000 years; past, present, and future.
