Daystar University Students Association (DUSA) serves as the student government at the university. Every Daystar student is automatically a member of DUSA.

The DUSA Executive Committee, which is responsible for running DUSA affairs, is democratically elected by the student body during  the month of April every year.  DUSA has the following sub committees: Academic Affairs, Social Welfare, Sports and Recreation, Clubs and Associations, International Students Association, Continuing Education and the Post Graduate Committee.

There are other opportunities for students to get involved through the student clubs and associations that run under the auspices of DUSA. They include: AIESEC, Drama, Environmental Conservation, French, Marketing, Accounting, Communication Association of Daystar Students, Community Development, Wildlife, Debating and Current Affairs and  Daystar University Students in Free Enterprise.

The key link person for DUSA activities is the Dean of Students.
