Yes. Each year the Micah program accepts students into our first-year community who are also in SLU's Honors program.

Micah students can be any major. More than 30 majors are represented in the Micah program.

Many Micah sophomores and juniors study abroad for a semester or even a year. 

Micah first-year students take at least three Micah sections of core courses together. When appropriate, the courses focus on social justice issues, connecting students' studies to their experiences in their community service.

Micah classes can count toward students' graduation requirements. The Micah program does not add more academic requirements.

Yes. The Micah community is interfaith and includes students from a variety of religious backgrounds, denominations, and non-faith backgrounds.

 All first-year Micah students must attend weekly community-hour meetings that often include interfaith discussions to build a community of shared concern and support. You will also find some interfaith-related activities while attending the Micah retreats. SLU students from all faiths and all areas of study are invited to apply.

 

We work at service sites in urban communities near SLU's campus. This service focuses on building relationships with the people working at the organizations, those being served and other Micah students.

Most service-related scholarship requirements on campus can be fulfilled through the Micah program.

You will receive a schedule of service opportunities and choose your top three preferences based on your interest and your availability. Micah program staff will try their best to give you your top choice.

The Micah program provides vans for weekly service and other Micah events. Students in the program who are verified by the University drive the vans. There are no additional costs to Micah students for this transportation. As long as you complete the driver's verification process and follow all guidelines,  SLU's insurance will cover you.

Our highest priority is to ensure that everyone stays safe. Although no American city is without potential dangers, the neighborhoods where we serve are stable and our sites are well-run. We do, however, focus on having an older and experienced student in each service group, ask first-year students to never go to service sites alone, and require them to always take the vans directly to service sites and back.

In addition to weekly service, many first-year students volunteer for special monthly events with older Micah students, faculty and staff. These events involve engaging with children at special events, renovating houses, beautifying city neighborhoods, or fixing up facilities at underfunded schools.

First-year Micah students and their Micah sophomore mentors live on the fifth through eighth floors of Marguerite Hall in the Micah Learning Community.

Once you have been accepted into the Micah program, our program coordinator will inform the Department of Housing and Residence Life to move your housing assignment to one of the floors in the Micah Learning Community.  You should also contact the Department of Housing and Residence Life by email and ask to be switched.
