Student Life
Making the Most of Your Experience
ճStudent Government Association (SGA) is the representative governing body for all on-site and online students at SWAGƵ. Not only do these representatives serve as the voice for students, they also continue the tradition of compassion and service to the community through such events as Santa’s Workshop benefiting local foster children. The SGA serves to empower the student body through efforts such as mobilizing students to affect change on campus and in our communities. The SGA works with university administration, faculty, and staff to help students develop into the best possible health care professionals.
Many students are involved in SWAGƵ’s clubs, in fact over 500 on-site and online students are officers in our 130+ clubs! At SWAGƵ, student organizations serve every interest. Our 130+ clubs range from cultural and religious, specialty-based, nationally affiliated professional organizations and honors societies. Hundreds of students, faculty and staff pack the esplanade during Club Day in the fall and Club Extravaganza in the spring to learn more about the various clubs and activities on campus and to partake in the games, food and festivities!
A Place You Can Call Home
Countless Ways To Stay Active
