A Commitment to Mission

Our vision is to be a leading global university known for transformative faith, academic excellence and whole-person flourishing.

At Andrews, we aim to be the leading global university of choice for Seventh-day Adventist education, forming exceptional graduates that are grounded in the biblical foundation of faith in Jesus Christ and equipped to be ethical change agents in the world.

This means that Andrews will be known for its missional focus, forming world changers through its premier academic programs, high-impact research, and transformative experiences, and preparing students to glorify God through their outstanding academic achievements, distinguished professional careers, and purpose-driven lives. Graduates will achieve exceptionally high pass rates on professional and licensure exams, secure consistent acceptance into professional and graduate programs, and obtain successful employment.

Students and families will choose Andrews University for its commitment to providing an accessible and comprehensive educational experience in a faith-based environment, nurturing whole-person development through spiritual growth, academic excellence, personal wellness, and career readiness. This choice is affirmed as the Andrews family actively engages in campus life, community service, and global outreach, inspired by the example of Jesus.

Faculty and staff will choose Andrews University for its dedication to fulfilling the gospel commission through education, research, and service in preparation for the Second Coming of Christ and the new creation. The University’s supportive and caring environment, its diverse and international culture, and its commitment to advance the biblical worldview through effective teaching, trustworthy scholarship, and professional excellence further attracts highly qualified faculty and staff to be a part of the Andrews community.

Finally, as a result of association with Andrews University, communities will experience hope, health and happiness, the Seventh-day Adventist church will fulfill its mission with increased clarity and efficacy, and the world will encounter our loving God.
