The Office of Commuter Life provides opportunities and services to all commuter students at Azusa Pacific University.

Mission Statement

The Commuter Life office exists to provide opportunities and services to all commuter students at Azusa Pacific University in order to create a sense of belonging on campus that fosters personal development and academic success through cocurricular and extracurricular engagement.

Location

The Student Union, also known as the Cougar Dome, houses the Commuter Life office. The Student Union is one of the primary on-campus socialization and information hubs for the student community.

Fulfilling Our Mission

Commuter Life’s student leaders, known as Commuter Life Assistants (CLAs), and professional staff fulfill their mission by offering a variety of services and programs for commuters, including but are not limited to free printing, lockers, and a variety of amenities. The office seeks to provide an environment where students feel equipped to navigate university resources and ultimately find a sense of belonging on campus. The office regularly hosts commuter meals and events to foster community engagement amongst commuter students.

Commuter Life takes a special interest in meeting the needs of the university’s commuter student population by also partnering with offices such as Campus Life. Many of the programs coordinated by the Campus Life staff are geared toward enhancing the quality of the student experience for commuters, and special discounts and benefits are offered to the commuter student population to encourage their involvement and attendance at Campus Life-sponsored events.
