Edinburgh College Students' Association (ECSA) is an autonomous, student-run campaigning and membership organisation that promotes, defends and extends student rights and provides services and representation at Edinburgh College, Scotland. [1] [2] [3]

Following the decision to merge Edinburgh's Stevenson College, Jewel and Esk Valley College and Telford College the respective students' associations at each institution united to form a new association in advance of the merger of the Colleges to provide continuity to students. [4]

The association has three full-time elected student officers, [5] and four staff members. [6] Additionally, it has been awarded two rounds of Scottish Government Climate Challenge Funding, which enables the association to employ two full-time Sustainability Officers. [7] ECSA is a member of the National Union of Students.
