South University remains focused on the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff in the COVID-19 pandemic. Our commitment to safety remains at the forefront as the University enacts our carefully planned and measured reopening of our campuses for Fall quarter 2020.
Today we welcome to campus students electing to take on-campus classes and lab courses. We also want to send a big welcome to all of our new and returning students who are starting new classes this week.

“My education and degree from South University has made a huge difference in my life and my family's life, as it gave me the needed confidence to pursue graduate school,” Richard (RJ) Anderson says.
Anderson – who has always been interested in the study of behavior and cognitive abilities – chose South University in large part because of the university’s strong student support system. Having those resources became especially valuable for Anderson when he suffered a stroke in 2019. South University is ready to help be a part of YOUR support system for school!
