Welcome International Donors
SUA has been supported by generous individuals all over the world, such as Asia, Oceania, Europe, North & South America, and Africa. In 2008 over 90% of Soka's students, both domestic and international, received financial aid totaling over 8 million dollars; which included nearly 5 million dollars in need-based grants and 3 million dollars in merit-based scholarships.
The mission of Soka University is to “foster a steady stream of global citizens committed to living a contributive life.” Nearly 50% of current students are from 30+ other countries, and all students will participate in a Study Abroad/International Internship during their junior year.
Your generous support enables students from all over the world to receive an opportunity for humanistic education for global citizens.
