SUA is firmly committed to assisting students, whether from the United States or abroad, who could not otherwise afford to attend. The university does not consider your ability to pay in the admission selection process. SUA will provide financial assistance to admitted students on the basis of need. SUA is also conducting a Scholarship Endowment Drive to provide assistance for students who would not be able to attend without financial aid. In addition to these concentrations, students will find that the curriculum offers a broad range of general education courses, language instruction, four University Core courses and Learning Cluster courses in which students identify, research, analyze and propose solutions to various world problems.
