Welcome Message

Welcome to AdventHealth University (AHU). We are honored that you have entrusted AHU with your higher education needs and goals. AHU has an excellent reputation for providing state-of-the-art healthcare education.  The faculty, staff, and administration are committed to continuing the nearly 30 years of excellent education to Central Florida.  AdventHealth University believes that being a healthcare professional means more than just acquiring excellent clinical skills and knowledge in the science of the human body. Therefore, AdventHealth University is dedicated to providing each student with the tools necessary to treat patients as a whole person:  mind, body, and spirit. AHU’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 Deans of Students, we hope that your education here at AHU 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 our office can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at 407-303-8016.

To your success,
