Augsburg College

School Description
Provided by Augsburg CollegeOur mission is to nurture future leaders in service to the world by providing high quality educational opportunities, which are based in the liberal arts and shaped by the faith and values of the Christian church, by the context of a vital metropolitan setting, and by an intentionally diverse campus community.
Auggies are loosely defined as “Augsburg students, professors, and like-minded individuals.” Behaviorally, Auggies are known for pushing the envelope and changing communities. They regularly one-up the competition, but prefer the thrill of the game. Auggies are for real - they don’t pretend, posture, or pontificate.
Augsburg students come from all over the country and the world to live and learn. Our campus is a lively assortment of cultures, races, identities, religions, and ways of thinking. Though we are different in many ways, one thing brings us together -- our curriculum.
In the undergraduate programs, the Core Curriculum combines liberal arts, major coursework, and Augsburg’s signature courses to prepare students to be leaders and stewards of our ever-changing world. Our graduate curriculum is guided by the themes of preparation for leadership, education for service, and recognition of cultural and social diversity.
Students in all of our programs learn outside of the classroom through service learning, internships, fieldwork, consulting projects, and study abroad. It’s this commitment to hands-on learning, combined with the opportunities our city offers, that makes your educational experience uniquely Augsburg.
Augsburg is a quality liberal arts institution set in the heart of a great metropolitan center. There are now almost 18,000 Augsburg alumni. In a world that has changed much since those first days of the College, Augsburg still sends out graduates who make a difference where they live and work.
Augsburg College
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaAugsburg College is a selective, liberal arts college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was founded in 1869 in Marshall, Wisconsin as Augsburg Seminary and moved to Minneapolis in 1872. Undergraduate classes first began in the fall of 1874 with the first class graduating in the spring of 1879 In 1893 Augsburg leaders formed the "Friends of Augsburg", which became the Lutheran Free Church in 1897. Women were first admitted to the college in 1921. The school was officially known as Augsburg Seminary until 1942 when the name was change to Augsburg College and Theological Seminary although that name had been informally used since the 1910s. When the Lutheran Free Church merged with the American Lutheran Church in 1963 Augsburg Seminary merged with Luther Seminary in Saint Paul and the name of the school officially became Augsburg College.

Augsburg College is located in the center of Minneapolis close to St. Paul with a program in Rochester as well.
As the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's (ELCA) most diverse college of the liberal arts and sciences, Augsburg strives to educate both traditional and non-traditional students, offering undergraduate degrees in over 50 major areas of study. The College also grants six graduate degrees:

- the Master in Business Administration,
- the Master of Social Work,
- the Master of Arts in Nursing, and
- the Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies, the state's only Physician Assistant training program.
Majors in the Sciences, Business-related fields, and the teacher licensure program - which has been preparing K–12 teachers since 1923 - are the most popular areas of study.

College Advice |
Question: I am thinking about applying to augsburg college in minneapolis, MN. Does anyone have any idea of the?application and interview process or what they really like and look for? I was also wondering what type of hours physcian assistants typically work? Do they have to work on weekends or can you get a 9 to 5 type of job as a PA?11 months ago
Best AnswerIf you're applying for the PA program, it's a grad program, so make sure you have your GMAT out of the way. Also, have transcripts from all college work sent to Augsburg (even that Calculus course you had to re-take over the summer). They'll want to know that you're familiar with what a PA does, both one who is surgical and one who does more office-based work, and maybe even a rural PA. They also want someone who is well-rounded with day-to-day exposure to the medical environment (so you've volunteered in the hospital, etc). It depends on what exactly you want as a PA, you can either work a less traditional schedule (if you're hospital-based) or more of a 9-5 (if you're office-based). |
