Welcome to Student Affairs!

At Messiah College, student success is not simply defined as excellent grades or placement on the honor roll, but also how each student through out-of-the-classroom experiences, matures to a level consistent with the mission of the College - to educate men and women toward maturity of intellect , character and Christian faith in preparation for lives of service, leadership, and reconciliation in church and society.

The Division of Student Affairs is committed to developing

and nurturing the whole student.  We achieve this goal

through a holistic cocurriculum that continually assesses the

outcome of each student's learning and character

development. We believe these combined formative learning

attributes prepare students for a successful and rewarding

future, ready to serve and lead, out of a deep sense of who

God calls them to be.
