Division of Student Affairs

In conjunction with the University mission, Student Affairs takes a holistic approach to further develop personal, academic and professional growth in our students through collaboration and support. With these efforts, we strive to enrich the student experience. We promote access, inclusion and advocacy through services, resources and programming to yield well-rounded future healthcare professionals as engaged members of the Cardinal and global communities.
