The United States Student Association (USSA) is an American student organization. According to Inside Higher Education in 2015, it was the largest of a number of student associations that were arguing for free higher education.[1]

The organization was born in August 1978 during a joint meeting between the National Student Association and more recently formed National Student Lobby. The membership of both organizations voted overwhelmingly to merge due to overlapping lobbying work and student government based membership. The National Student Lobby itself was originally born of a split with the National Student Association.[2]
