ASIC participates in the UCU decision-making process by having members seated on the College Council and College Board as student representatives. The College Council advises the Dean on UCU policy such as budget proposals, UCU statutes and academic rules, as well as having the ability to raise issues it deems need to be addressed. ASIC also participates in the College Board (one student member). The College Board is the most important decision-making board on campus, implementing all policy changes at UCU. Together with the “Management Team” (the Dean, Managing Director, and Director of Education), the College Board makes sure that UCU runs properly and handles from management issues to issues students have brought forward to ASIC or their tutors.

The College Council consists of four ASIC student representatives and four staff representatives. The four students are elected annually, and staff members hold their position for two years. The members of the 2009-2010 council are:

1. Jos van der Linden (Chair) (Teacher)

2. Niels Brants (Vice-Chair)(ASIC)

3. Berend Booms (Secretary) (ASIC)

4. Tatiana Bruni (Teacher)

5. Jan van Ophuijsen (Teacher)

6. Francesco Maiolo (Teacher)

7. Kees Oude Lenferink (ASIC)

8. Mischa Schirris (ASIC)
