STUDENT AFFAIRS

The Division of Student Affairs is that component of the University that deals with student welfare, particularly as it relates to the non-academic areas of the University. The Student Affairs Division is responsible for expanding the extra-curricular environment and creating an atmosphere for students which is conducive to learning and growing. Admissions, Housing, Financial Aid, Student Life, Student Activities, Intramurals, Recreation and the Wellness Center are all offices that are included within the Division of Student Affairs. Also included as responsibilities of the Student Affairs area are discipline, residence life, student organizations and activities, social events, student publications, the UWA Cheerleaders, the Campus Activities Board (CAB), and the Student Government Association. This broad range of functions gives Student Affairs personnel the expertise to deal with practically any situation that may arise. This combination of abilities, plus a willing attitude to reach out to students as individuals, makes the Student Affairs Division an integral part of the University’s educational process.
