The Team Behind TSR

The Student Room is owned by a small but perfectly formed Brighton based company called Acumen PI, but soon to morph into The Student Room Group.

We’re all passionate about The Student Room and our sister sites, and love working on them. Generally we see our role as facilitators, steering our sites forward in exciting ways, but we’re under no illusions that it’s the community of members that make The Student Room special and unique in the vast world of social media.

TSR wouldn’t be the success it is without its team of over 100 site volunteers including moderators, Personal Statement & CV Helpers.
