Levies

Levies are student groups who have each come to address particular needs and provide crucial services at Vic, cementing them as permanent staples of our community. Unlike clubs, all levies receive a pre-determined amount of student fees each year, making them financially and operationally independent from VUSAC.

 

There are currently eleven levies. You can read more about how levies are formed and how they operate in the Levy Handbook.

Additionally, each levy has its own Constitution/Operating Policy, that outlines their specific mandates. These documents exist to ensure that levies continue to provide the relevant services and fulfill their responsibilities to the Vic Community each year.

For more information, please email the Vice-President Student Organizations at vpso@vusac.ca
