Learning, Doing, Growing

Southwestern Adventist University believes in the development of the whole person: body, mind and spirit.

Opportunities Abound

We are more concerned with the quality of our many small programs than the development of bigger ones. As such, the educational focus is personal, and students have many opportunities to flourish.

An International Flavor

With students from more than two dozen countries, Southwestern offers the young person an opportunity to meet and interact while learning how the rest of the world lives.

Financial Aid

Veterans

Students with previous military experience may be eligible for certain benefits. Contact the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) records center and obtain a certificate of eligibility before school begins. Bring the certification to the Southwestern Records Office. After registration, notification of enrollment will be sent to the VA. 

If you're a veteran who qualifies for full benefits under the Veterans Administration Post-9/11 GI Bill, the VA will cover the full cost of your tuition. You may also receive a housing allowance and money to purchase textbooks and class materials.

Qualifications:

  • You must have served at least 36 months of active duty since September 11, 2001.
  • You were honorably discharged from active duty for a service connected disability, and you served 30 continuous days after September 10, 2001
  • You are a dependent eligible for Transfer of Entitlement under the Post-9/11 GI Bill based on a veteran's service under the eligibility criteria listed above.
