Chapels and Choices

A Gathered Community

Andrews University offers a rich learning environment both inside and outside of the classroom.  Classes required for a student's chosen academic curriculum are complemented by a number of required co-curricular experiences each semester. Curricular and co-curricular requirements work together to deliver the unique whole-person education that lies at the heart of Andrews University's mission.

There are two types of co-curricular programs offered:

• Chapels and Forums. Chapel programs are designed to gather the university family together once a week for corporate worship, spiritual inspiration and biblical instruction. Forums, often presented by noted leaders, focus on major issues of concern to Christians as they live and work in the world. These will occur approximately once a month.

• Co-Curricular Choices. A wide variety of programs will gather smaller groups of students together each week and focus on their intellectual, spiritual and leadership development. These choices will be presented at different times throughout the week in the residence halls and across campus.

Both types of programs are integral to the Andrews University educational experience, connecting faith, living and learning, and fostering the building of community
