Vice President of Enrollment

There’s a reason we call ourselves the Mustangs, and why our mascot’s name is Victory: it represents the strength and unity of the entire Stevenson University community and the spirit that drives everything—from the institution’s growth to its championship athletic teams. The bronze Victory statue that stands proud outside of our Mustang Stadium embodies permanence and endurance, while our mascot, the Mustang, symbolizes passion, energy, and independent spirit.

Our students and alumni are an integral piece of that spirit; they are the inspiration for innovation and growth at Stevenson University. SU is an intimate place where great minds come together in a tight-knit environment and make history. You won’t be just a name here. Small classroom sizes make for engaged peers and close relationships with faculty, a pillar of our values. We’ve purposefully designed an atmosphere of collaboration, inquiry, and opportunity. In admissions, our responsibility is to show you that as authentically as we can. What better way to introduce us than through our current students and alumni who have found their own meaning in our phrase, “SU is Home”?

Whether you’re a senior or junior in high school, or even younger, we hope you’ll recognize a part of yourself in the stories to follow. If you’ve always been talented at arguing your point, if you find the human mind fascinating, or if you’ve always wanted to start your own podcast—whatever your life compass points you toward—we’ve got students who have done it all (just turn the pages to find out). We’ll leave it up to you to decide what resonates best with you, and we’ll be right here when you’re ready to head “off to the races” in your college journey.
