Since our beginning in 1873, Spring Arbor University has taken a unique approach to how we interact with and educate our students. Even though we are an academic institution, SAU is not solely focused on knowledge acquisition. In other words, we don’t believe that knowledge and skill acquisition comprise the totality of an educated person. Rather, we are deeply invested in transforming our students into becoming people of wisdom, which is achieved when a student is pushed beyond knowledge acquisition into knowledge application.

Enjoy a relevant education with a real-life application of knowledge.

One of the ways we deliver a relevant education is through the real-life application of knowledge. As a student of our master’s or bachelor’s degree programs, absorbing knowledge is the first step. Success lies in the direct implementation of knowledge to solve real-world challenges. We are on constant alert to adapt our online courses to new trends. This way, you learn not only the solid foundations of subject matter, but also the latest implementation strategies needed in this rapidly changing world.

Take advantage of unparalleled support every step of the way.

Spring Arbor University understands the importance of having a support network. In addition to instructors, staff and peers who know exactly what it’s like to be an adult online learner, you will be assigned your own Student Success Coach who will work with you on work-life balance, personal and professional development, career goals and more.

Explore our Christian approach to education.

What began as a small elementary and secondary school in the late 1800s has evolved into a top-tier ecumenical Christian university committed to lifelong involvement in the study and application of the liberal arts, with Jesus Christ as the perspective for learning and critical participation in the contemporary world. At SAU, your spiritual growth is just as important as your academic growth. That is why each of our educational programs is built on a foundation of academic and educational integrity and faith.

It is our belief that by integrating faith into education, you will advance your purpose in life in a way that is needed in society and is pleasing to God. Students of our programs either share the Christian perspective of the university or are amenable to such perspectives while a student. This means all students are expected to govern their lives in a way that is pleasing to the Creator, is enriching to oneself and to others.

Spring Arbor University is a community of learners distinguished by our lifelong involvement in the study and application of the liberal arts, total commitment to Jesus Christ as the perspective for learning, and critical participation in the contemporary world.

Enjoy an education of the heart and head.

As you can see, SAU represents a healthy online community of people willing and eager to acquire wisdom.
