The BCUSU Superstars scheme is an accreditation programme designed to recognise and celebrate student reps who go above and beyond in representing their peers.

This Rep Superstars scheme rewards reps for completing goals that improve the student experience within your course, school, or the wider BCU community. The scheme helps you track your progress as a rep, ensure you’re making a real impact for your fellow peers and access a number of exclusive rewards.

To earn rewards, you just need to log the activities you’ve completed and submit evidence through a simple form, YOU CAN'T SKIP AHEAD. You’ll need to work your way from Bronze, to Silver, and finally to Gold.

How to submit your tasks and process

As a rep, you should complete the form by selecting the goal you want to upload evidence for – you can only submit one goal at a time.
This automatically marks that goal on the tracker as pending until a member of the Activities and Representation team evaluates it.

From there, you'll be given one of the following outcomes:
✅ - Goal Complete
❌ - Goal incomplete
