Student Life

Find Your Success as a Student at Friends University

Make the most of your time as a student here at Friends University! Below are some ways you can get involved and be part of our wonderful community.

Residence Life

The data is in: students who live on campus have a 74 percent higher chance of graduating than those who live off campus. If that were a lottery odd, we’d be playing.

Campus Ministries

At Campus Ministries, our mission is to build community and growth within Friends University by leading and encouraging students to live transformed lives in the grace of God.

Inclusion

The mission of the Inclusion and International Students department is to increase cultural awareness and promote an anti-racist environment through positive representation of cultures, heritage month celebrations, open dialogue, interdepartmental collaborations, and community partnerships.

Life In Wichita

Wichita has been named an All-American City four times since 1962. It also ranked among the top 32 cities nationally for quality of life. In fact, Money Magazine recently named the Wichita community a Top 10 Best Place to live (right above New York City).

Involvement & Activities

After spending just a few minutes on our beautiful campus, you can see why even seniors have a difficult time pinpointing their favorite buildings, venues and cozy study spots.

Wellness & Therapy

The health and well-being of our student body is of the utmost importance to the faculty and staff members at Friends University. Maintaining good physical, mental and spiritual health is important to your success as a student.

Facilities & Campus

From the playing fields, to hallowed Davis Hall, to the Casado Campus Center, the Friends University campus is teaming with fun activities, fantastic facilities and helpful resources. And you can have access to all of it.

From Davis to Casado, we have a beautiful campus!

Title IX states that no person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any educational program or activity receiving federal financial assistance. 

All employees at Friends University will complete Title IX training and are expected to follow all Title IX policies and procedures.

Title VI is part of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that prohibits discrimination on the basis of race,, color, or national origin and retaliation by any program or activity that receives federal financial assistance.
