UO’s Division of Student Services and Enrollment Management is guided by a mission rooted in possibility, belonging, and shared achievement:
For Ducks and their families, our mission reflects far more than a set of ideals. It captures how we show up every day to support every student who chooses Oregon to thrive from their first interaction with the university through graduation and beyond.
Opening doors is our commitment to helping each Duck discover their potential and the avenues available to pursue their purpose-driven ambitions. Whether students are navigating the admissions process, seeking financial support, our teams work to remove barriers and expand opportunity.
Cultivating community acknowledges that every student arrives with a unique story and that belonging is something built through authentic experiences. Our role is to create the spaces, programs, and support systems where Ducks can connect, form relationships, and shape their own sense of home on campus. We provide the environment; students bring it to life.
Championing success reflects that success at Oregon is not a solitary pursuit, it’s a partnership. We walk alongside Ducks throughout their journey. From housing and registration support to wellbeing services to leadership opportunities, we are here to encourage, guide, and empower students as they navigate challenges and celebrate achievements.
This shared mission reflects the spirit of Oregon Rising, the UO’s strategic plan and a belief that we rise together when Ducks are supported and able to flourish.
