The Student Affairs and Services (SAS) encompass the services and programs in higher education institutions that focus on supporting students' academic experiences in order to achieve holistic student development. The cluster is led by the Vice President for Student Affairs and Services (VPSAS) and is comprised of three main divisions: Student Welfare Services (SWS), Student Development Services (SDS), and Institutional Student Programs and Services (ISPS).
SWS encompass fundamental services and programs essential for ensuring and promoting the welfare of students. SDS pertains to services and programs specifically tailored for the exploration, enhancement, and realization of students' complete potential for personal growth, leadership, and social responsibility through institutional or student-initiated activities. ISPS include services and programs designed to proactively address the fundamental health, nutrition, housing, and safety needs of students, including those with special needs and disabilities within the school community. Each division will be under the management of a Director, who will be responsible for overseeing various student support units. The organizational structure provided below delineates the chain of command and associated responsibilities.
