The Belarusian Students' Association (Belarusian: Задзіночанне Беларускіх Студэнтаў, Zadzninochannie Belaruskikh Studentau; BSA) is the oldest youth organization of independent Belarus with the self-proclaimed goal of "consolidation of the Belarusian student movement for the revival of the principles of democracy, legality and fulfillment of human rights and freedoms in Belarus"

The BSA emerged as an anti-communist youth organization in the late 1980s and united democratic student groups in a single union. In 1992, the BSA was officially registered by the Ministry of Justice. It was deregistered in 2001. The association continued its activities and was repeatedly the target of political repression.

Currently, the association consists of nine student unions.
