I think it is necessary. First, think clearly about what you want to study, what experience you want to accumulate and what opportunities you get, and then consider whether you need to join the student union. Of course, to answer whether you need it, you need to know what you want and what the above things can bring you, and then make a decision.

The following are the advantages and disadvantages of joining the student union, which can be weighed before making a decision:

Benefits:

1, participating students can give priority to scholarships and grants, and get the honorary title within the school or department;

2. You can write the work experience of the student union into the student file to prove your working ability and organizational management level in the school;

3. It will be more convenient to join the Party, giving priority to party member. Get the graduation internship opportunity promoted by the school.

Disadvantages:

1, the so-called bureaucracy, in some cases, some departments with poor style of work put all the tasks on the team members who just entered the university. If you join such a student organization, unfortunately, such a student organization will not only get no exercise, but will delay your life. Because from now on, you will find that you will always worry about a bunch of other people's things, but your own things are not done well.

If you join an inefficient student organization, the students will not only waste your own time and energy, but also you won't learn anything worth learning from it.

However, it depends on your choice. After all, four years in college is the golden time of your life. It is the most important thing to do more things you like every day and make yourself happy.
