Welcome Message

Welcome to Adventist University of Health Sciences (ADU). We are honored that you have entrusted ADU with your higher education needs and goals. ADU has an excellent reputation for providing state of the art healthcare education.  The faculty, staff, and administration are committed to continuing the 25 plus years of excellent education to Central Florida.  Adventist University of Health Sciences believes that being a healthcare professional means more than just acquiring excellent clinical skills and knowledge in the science of the human body. Therefore, Adventist University of Health Sciences is dedicated to providing each student with the tools necessary to treat patients as a whole person:  mind, body, and spirit. ADU’s mission is “Healthcare as Ministry,” and it is our goal to present students with educational experiences highlighting how to administer care to broken souls during difficult times, as well as, broken bodies.

As Dean of Students, I hope that your education here at ADU is transformative and success-filled. Obtaining a degree in healthcare is challenging, and can be stressful. We want to assist your success during your educational journey. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the services, support and policies that have been designed to assist you in meeting your educational goals.

If my office can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at 407-303-8016.

To your success,

Stephen Roche, Ph.D.
Senior V.P. for Student Services
