  • Campus Events: Campus-wide engagement opportunities to foster a sense of community.
  • Campus Recreation: Coordinating physical and electronic sports throughout the academic year.

Welcome Weekend

The Office of Campus Life hosts Welcome Weekend at the beginning of each fall and spring semester to welcome new APU students into the community. Welcome Weekend provides an experience that fosters a sense of belonging for new students, families, and guests through intentional programming centered on preparing each student for their time at Azusa Pacific University.
