Sure, there's lots of great student discounts available around London, but we have a feeling this will soon become one of your favourites. Meet our new Students' Union Rewards Club.
As a UCL student, our Rewards Club is completely free to join and designed with you in mind. No more switching between stamp cards and different wallets - if you're part of our Rewards Club you'll have access to exclusive student discounts and offers in all our Union Café and Bars throughout the year.

More ways to save
As part of our promise to offer you great value, we always have lots of student deals and discounts in our outlets all year round. Our top three are:
- Meal Deals - Last year students collectively saved £171,000 in Bloomsbury Shop with our meal deals! We offer value, classic and premium meal deals, and with the shop located in the centre of campus near the library it makes it a perfect stop on the go between lectures or study sessions.
- Gym membership - We have discounted rates on all student annual and monthly memberships and day passes at both our TeamUCL Gym Bloomsbury and TeamUCL Gym East sites giving you full access to our state of the art facilities and full class schedule. (Plus we have our best membership offer of the year starting in September so be sure not to miss that for a bargain!)
- Happy Hour - all our bars have some fantastic drink deals (including non-alcoholic options) but in this hot weather we can't get enough of Institute Bar's roof terrace. With pints from £4 and 3 cocktails from £15.
