By 2031 Selma University will be firmly situated as a notable institution of higher education for transforming men and women into highly effective servant leaders in African American communities and abroad. The campus community culture and climate will be one where cadre embrace and practice the Christian faith and demonstrate servant leadership as a lifestyle. The University seeks students who are willing to respect and practice the Christian faith, participate in Christian service opportunities, and willingly practice campus community protocols and biblical teachings.
The graduates will be highly proficient in the skills required to perform tasks commensurate with their credentials and demonstrate a propensity for impacting their communities through servant leadership. The University’s academic accreditations and reputation for producing distinguished graduates, will help to ensure that student credits and credentials are widely recognized and accepted by other institutions of higher education and businesses nationwide.
Alumni and parents, church and community leaders, employers, and educational agencies throughout the State of Alabama will view Selma University as an effective institution for creating servant leaders and granting degrees to graduates who are competent in their respective fields. The Alabama State Missionary Baptist Convention will view the University as its primary instrument for providing higher Christian education to preachers and teachings in Baptist Churches and African American communities throughout Alabama.
Finally, the University will be valued by community members as an important voice in community affairs and enjoy a warm collaborative relationship among colleges and universities throughout the State.
