Clubs at ACity​

The office of the Student and Community affairs is responsible for the development and implementation of co-curricular activities that will complement students and enhance the overall educational experience of students.

This office coordinates, advises, provides financial and administrative assistance to student groups, clubs and organizations and the student governing body at ACity.

We recognize the leadership potential in every one of our students and strive to give them tools to succeed by guiding them through the formation and management of these clubs on campus.

These clubs exist to support and enrich the academic experience for our students, by creating an environment that supports learning outcomes outside of the lecture halls.

Various clubs at ACity are:

Academic City Student Council (ACSC)

The Academic City Students Council (ACSC) serves as the official student governing body, representing the interests and voices of students across campus. As the highest student leadership cabinet, the council plays a pivotal role in shaping student life, advocating for student needs, and fostering a vibrant, inclusive community.

Through collaboration with faculty and administration, the ACSC organizes academic and social events, leads student initiatives, and ensures that student concerns are addressed. Members of the council gain hands-on leadership experience, honing skills in governance, decision-making, and teamwork—preparing them for future leadership roles in their careers and beyond.

The council also works closely with various student clubs, drives campus-wide engagement, and champions student-led projects that contribute to the university’s culture of innovation and excellence.

Civic Engagement

The effect of student growth can only be felt by the contribution that they make to society. Learning to take responsibility for the transformation of the community is a mark of students transitioning into adulthood.

For electronic sports gamers, there is also a plethora of options on gaming consoles to savor, like FIFA, Mortal Kombat, and Call of Duty. These indoor games give students the opportunity to reduce stress from coursework, socialize with friends, enhance creative thinking, and, ultimately, resume rigorous classes with more momentum and productivity.
