The Associated Students of the University of Alaska Fairbanks is UAF's student government. ASUAF gives students an opportunity to develop leadership skills while advocating for all UAF students. All UAF students who pay the consolidated fee are members of the association.   

While ASUAF technically refers to the entire association and its membership which encompasses almost every student at UAF, in colloquial use, ASUAF typically refers to the student government officials of ASUAF. 

ASUAF's constitution establishes a government of ASUAF, consisting of "a President and Vice President elected by the student body on the same ticket, a Senate elected by the student body, and a Chairperson of the Senate elected by the Senate."
