The Seminary Student Association consists of all North Park Theological Seminary students and is represented by an elected Student Council.

The mission of the Student Council is to minister to and through the Seminary community through student-initiated events, services, advocacy, and cooperation with other North Park Theological Seminary offices.

The Council consists of a president, vice-president, secretary, vice-secretary, treasurer, two representatives from each academic class, and one representative from the international student community. Ex-officio members include representatives from the faculty, Partners in Ministry, and recognized student organizations. The Council oversees standing committees focused on four areas: Community Concerns, Finance and Academics, Outreach and Mission, and Social Events. The Council meets each month to address students' needs and concerns and to plan events for the Student Association. It also serves as the student representative to the administration, faculty, and the Seminary Board of Directors.

Elections are held in the spring of each year. Students who are not members of the Student Council are strongly encouraged to get involved by joining one of the standing committees and bringing ideas and concerns to Council members.
