The Nova Scotia Student Advocacy Coalition (NSSAC) was a post-secondary education student lobby group in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. It collapsed in 2003 as a result of ideological differences between Canadian Federation of Students and Canadian Alliance of Student Associations schools within the coalition.
The member organizations of NSSAC were:
- Acadia Students' Union
- University College of Cape Breton Students' Union
- Dalhousie Student Union
- St. Francis Xavier University Students' Union
- Saint Mary's University Students' Association
- University of King's College Students' Union
- Mount Saint Vincent University Students' Union
- Student Union of Nova Scotia College of Art and Design
- Association générale des étudiants de l'Université Sainte-Anne
