About SASSE

SASSE is your portal to student life at SSE, with a combination of weekly activities, special events, and long-term initiatives to support students’ social, professional, cultural, and academic wellbeing. About 95% of SSE students are SASSE members, and the Swedish Program provides a full SASSE membership to all students so you can jump right in.

SASSE is entirely independent and student-led. Each year, the membership elects a new President, Vice President, and Treasurer. These leaders often take a year off from their studies to focus on running the organization full-time – impressive, right?
