Student Government Association (SGA)
An Overview of SGA
SGA is comprised of 10 students, each of whom has either been elected by the APU student
body or appointed by student officers. We aim to continually improve the APU student
experience by providing a listening ear to the needs of every student. By meeting
with offices on campus to present these needs, we move to action in order to make
a positive change on campus. The officers on three distinct committees include strategists,
first-year representatives, and student senators who meet once a week to discuss ways
to support and engage students on campus.
SGA has been in existence at APU since 1945. In the school’s 125 years of developing
bright and ambitious scholars, the administration has always taken the input that
SGA has to offer very seriously. The results of such a relationship between SGA and
the administration has been extremely fruitful for both parties.
APU continues to be a place that fosters the development of young scholars with a Christian perspective. Our purpose on this campus is a unique one because it operates on the foundation that students need to be heard. As students are the life-blood of SGA, we work every day to advocate and create change on behalf of the student body.

There are many opportunities throughout the school year for the APU student body to get involved in the work that SGA does.Attend one of our weekly Business Meetings or stop by the office. SGA meets every Wednesday from 4:30-5:30 p.m. in the LAPC room. The Business Meetings provide an opportunity for every SGA officer to come together and share any updates, new ideas, and join in collaborative efforts to navigate student needs on campus.
Students are welcome to sit in on these weekly meetings to gain insight on the projects that SGA is currently working on. Additionally, students are also encouraged to bring any questions or concerns to SGA in these meetings. No prior notification is needed, students can simply show up as they are.
If you are uncomfortable attending one of the Business Meetings, stop by the SGA office next to Marshburn Library. Any of the SGA members would be happy to answer any questions or bring any concerns to the rest of the team on your behalf.
We host Student Hours from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday where we can guarantee SGA members will be in the office. If you see the SGA office open any other times, please feel free to pop in as well!
