Students are encouraged to take a full and active role in College and are invited to attend College communities. Each course have nominated representatives who attend meetings every term to discuss College issues and developments. Two student governors represent the students at management level. All students are entitled to join the National Union of Students (NUS). The NUS is one of the largest organisations in the world, representing the interest of around 5 million students throughout the United Kingdom. There are also given the opportunity to take a variety of courses such as Personal Presentation, Personal Safety and First Aid.
The College also offers a variety of trips and social events throughout the year, the chance to complete the Duke of Edinburgh's Award and any students with an interest in Drama can get involved in the Drama Club. There is a fitness room that contains both cardio-vascular and resistance equipment, and the College runs team leagues in a number of sports.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“The roaring alongside he takes for granted,
and that every so often the world is bound to shake.
He runs, he runs to the south, finical, awkward,
in a state of controlled panic, a student of Blake.”
—Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
“It is always a matter, my darling,
Of life or death, as I had forgotten. I wish
What I wished you before, but harder.”
—Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
