PARENTS & FAMILIES
With more than 60 academic programs and over 130 ways your student can participate in student life here at Anderson University, there are so many reasons to come to AU. But if you boil it all down, we’ve got two main priorities at Anderson University:
- Prepare your student for a real-life career in today’s fast-paced, global marketplace.
- Prepare your student for a lifetime of spiritual and personal development.
The results speak for themselves — we’re committed to continuing the formative work you’ve instilled in your child. Take it from our AU students, who say it much better than we could.
Helpful resources:
- Parents with enrolled students can join our AU Parent Connection Facebook group for important dates for your student, helpful tips, and to connect and discuss with other AU parents.
- View the Campus Calendar for holiday breaks and to see what’s going on in campus life.
- Visit the COVID-19 dashboard for information on COVID-19 cases and important announcements.
Anderson is a place where our daughter has been embraced, nurtured, taught, and challenged. We were nervous about the cost, but the financial aid has been generous, and God has provided every year.
