The Student Welfare Committee is responsible for all non-academic matters related to students, including — but not limited to — healthcare, financial assistance, accommodation, transportation, and incidents of ragging and misbehaviour. 

Faculty members are nominated to the Student Welfare Committee by the Deans of respective faculties on an annual basis. There are therefore as many members in the committee as there are departments in RUAS.

The Head of Student Affairs is the Secretary of the Committee, while the Director of Student Affairs is the Chairman of the Committee. 

The committee regularly gets together to explore ways of improving the student experience at RUAS and to address any difficulties faced by students. Quarterly meetings are also organised with student representatives to collect student feedback and initiative corrective measures.
