Message from the Executive Vice President

I am delighted that you have taken this time to explore our university website. You will discover valuable information about our services and ways to support university projects, as well as information related to APU accomplishments and upcoming sporting events, theater performances, concerts, and chapel speakers. Our goal is to provide resources for friends, donors, alumni, and parents.

I must admit, I have a wonderful job that also carries with it an awesome responsibility. As executive vice president for Azusa Pacific University, I am entrusted with raising funds for APU — to support building endeavors, acquire the latest equipment, fund endowed chairs, and most critically, underwrite student scholarships. And it is from the latter that my Advancement team draws the most satisfaction.

We know that nearly 80 percent of our student body depends on some form of financial assistance. It is our job to help make that happen. Obtaining a Christian education — one that integrates rigorous academic preparation with faith — is a sizeable undertaking.

With this in mind, I encourage you to review this site, investigate the giving opportunities, and let us know what you think. Ultimately, this site is intended to serve your needs. Please provide us with feedback so that we can meet that objective.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. God bless.

David Bixby, Ed.D.
Executive Vice President
