Welcome to the Student Affairs Web site. Student Affairs is primarily responsible for managing the student experience outside the classroom. From admissions and housing, to financial aid and on-campus dining, we provide services and facilities that support students, promote learning, and encourage personal growth.
As Vice President, I oversee the Dean of Students and the eleven Student Affairs departments. We are here to serve you! If you cannot find what you are looking for, please do not hesitate to contact my office.

The “U Matter” forum is designed and intended to engage small-group conversation on sexual assault, misconceptions and safety, as well as encourage student involvement in combatting issues discovered through a University investigation on alleged sexual assaults on and off campus. A report on the investigation is online at http://www.umt.edu/president/.

The Division of Student Affairs is committed to excellence, and to ensure continuous improvement regarding student programs and services, each department submits an annual report following an assessment project. Many reports from 2007 to 2011, including the Student Affairs Strategic Plan, are now available and can be accessed in Org Charts and Reports.

Interns spend one semester in four week rotations through four Student Affairs departments, and can elect to spend the next semester in an in-depth internship in one of those four departments.
