Maynooth Students' Union (MSU; Irish: Aontas na Mac Léinn, Má Nuad) is the students' union which represents the students of the National University of Ireland, Maynooth, St Patrick's College, Maynooth and their associated campuses across Ireland (such as the Froebel College of Education)It is the Union that represents the 8,000 strong student population. The four sabbatical officers, and seven executive members are elected students and aim to both individually and collectively continue in fighting against fees, aiding in education matters, welfare issues and protecting the overall student experience and rights on each of their campuses. They are the representatives of their students at local and national level, and are held accountable to their own students when they fail to properly represent.

Maynooth Students' Union is a constituent organisation the Union of Students in Ireland.
