The Four Hallmarks of Student Life

Return to: Student Handbook  

Andrews University is a Christian community where Christ is celebrated and reflected in the academic, social, physical and spiritual experiences of its members. As a Seventh-day Adventist institution, we seek to integrate faith, learning and living, while each of us matures in our relationships with God and each other.

By deciding to attend the main campus of Andrews University, students choose to be part of this uniquely Christian atmosphere. As such, students agree:

1. To attend a faith-based institution by respecting Andrews University’s Seventh-day Adventist Christian perspective and values. See A Faith-Based University .
2. To adopt a wholesome lifestyle guided by the core values of the Andrews University community. See A Wholesome Lifestyle .
3. To live on a residential campus in a University residence hall while an undergraduate student, single and under the age of 22 (unless living with an approved family member or Andrews faculty or staff member) and, while an undergraduate resident, to participate in a meal plan at the University’s vegetarian cafeteria. See A Residential Campus .
4. To be part of a gathered community, while an undergraduate student, by attending required co-curricular programs. See A Gathered and Growing Community .
