The college provides an exceptional education for students who are exploring and expanding their academic and career options. Individualized assistance, educational flexibility, and access to higher education are core values, and the graduates of the college are innovative, intellectually agile, and prepared to respond to the needs of a rapidly changing world.

University College is designed to respond to the needs of students throughout ASU. Initiatives that encourage discovery, inclusion, and engagement are found on each campus and beyond the physical boundaries of ASU. Programs on the Tempe campus focus on advising for exploratory students, the Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies degree program, and academic success and engagement programs. On the Polytechnic and West campuses, University College offers advising for exploratory students and academic success programs. The Downtown Phoenix campus is the administrative home of University College and, at this location, the college offers a wide range of courses across many disciplines, incubates new degree programs, develops and manages integrated student services, and advises students who want to explore majors and career paths. Through the School of Extended Education, all students are provided access to continuing education and high-quality degree completion opportunities.
