Welcome to Student Affairs. 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.
