The Student Guild at The University of Trinidad and Tobago established these governing documents to provide leadership and vision whilst promoting student unity, holistic development and the general welfare of UTT students.

The main governing document of the UTTSG is its Constitution which gains its power from the UTT Byelaw.

This Constitution basically sets the foundation of how the UTTSG operates, its representation, an understanding of UTT students basic rights and of course the relationship between the UTTSG and the UTT.
