Each year, we host a variety of activities to bring our students together and have fun. Be on the lookout for emails and flyers posted around the building.

Enactus

Enactus at Southern Adventist University is more than a club—it's a missional innovation lab where students from all majors collaborate to launch, strengthen, and scale ventures that create sustainable, Christ-centered change. Rooted in faith, entrepreneurial thinking, and measurable impact, Enactus empowers you to solve pressing problems like poverty, lack of sanitation, hunger, and women's empowerment through projects.

SMARRT

Southern Adventist University initiated the SMARRT Fund (Student Managed Asset Risk and Return Training) in 2019, setting aside $500,000 of the university’s main endowment for investment by a student team under the guidance of faculty advisers.

Taking a class off campus?

  • Once you've enrolled at Southern, any course(s) taken at another school is referred to as a transient course and requires pre-approval by the dean of your academic program in order for it to fulfill any requirements.
  • The school of business requires that all transient business courses must be taken through an AACSB-accredited business program.
  • Have a specific school in mind? Search for it on the AACSB website: https://www.aacsb.edu/accredited. If the school you have in mind is not listed, you will need to choose a course at another school.
  • Transient courses must be for the same number of credit hours as the course you would have taken at Southern.
  • Talk to your adviser to determine if a transient course is the best path forward based on your academic program.
