Cougar Commitment
We are proud to announce the launch of the SAU Cougar Commitment, a free tuition initiative for eligible incoming Fall 2024 undergraduate students! We believe all students should have access to a quality, Christ-centered education. Thanks to new programs like the Michigan Achievement Scholarship, we are able to provide the SAU Cougar Commitment, allowing qualified incoming Fall 2024 students to choose a top-tier 4-year institution by covering costs for full-time tuition and fees.

"Spring Arbor University has been more than a campus; it's a place where I've not only expanded my mind but also grown closer to Jesus. The liberal arts education here isn't just about books; it's about discovering the divine in every subject, every friendship, and every moment. SAU has taught me that Jesus isn't just a historical figure; He's my companion in every lecture, every discussion, and every step of this incredible journey."
Emily Cordon
“As a student at Spring Arbor University, I've learned that every day is a chapter in the story of my campus life, and the pages are filled with the vibrant colors of friendship, knowledge, and personal growth. SAU has not just given me an education; it has given me a family, a purpose, and a chance to thrive!"
