Oveview of Student Affairs Office

The Student Affairs Office (SAO) recognizes that university students are at a pivotal stage in their intellectual, spiritual, moral, and emotional development. In line with this, SAO is committed to fostering holistic growth by integrating these key dimensions into the student experience.

With a student-centric approach, SAO oversees a wide range of services encompassing student activities, accommodation, welfare, and mental health support. A comprehensive suite of resources—including extracurricular programs, scholarships, on-campus housing, and counselling services—is provided to empower students to excel academically and personally.

To ensure the efficient delivery of these services, SAO operates through six specialized units: the Student Activity Unit, the Scholarship and Education Loan Unit, the Counselling Unit, the Student Residence Unit, the Student Foreign Affairs, Alumni Communication and System Management Unit, and the Student Exchange Unit.

Mission

To make Southern UC a campus of humanity, SAO has set up two missions:

1. Build a Cosy and Safe Campus Living

SAO strives to build a conducive environment for study. In order to allow students to concentrate on their study without worry, SAO provides various assistance and services to all students. For a start, SAO do provide accommodation and the opportunity for communal living to non-local students. At the same time, Southern UC provides several kinds of scholarships and education loans which students can apply for funding to solve their financial difficulties and encourage them to strive for academic excellence. To ensure students’ safety are well covered, every students are is under the protection of group personal accident insurance. With these, we hope that Southern UC can serve as a second home for our students.

2. Mould a Healthy Personality

In pursuing excellence in academic, it is also important for students to maintain their health physically and mentally. We work relentlessly to ensure our students possess a healthy and good personality, mental outlook and moral sentiment, to set themselves a clear target on their current and future life. SAO employs professional counsellor to give students counselling and psychological tests, career path planning, and seminar on mental health. Through this, we hope that our students can live their life to the fullest.
