It is the policy of Adventist University of Health Sciences to maintain a safe and healthful environment for its students. A tobacco/alcohol/drug-free lifestyle for students is the goal. Therefore, it is the University’s policy that the manufacture, distribution, and possession of illicit drugs are strictly prohibited. The use of tobacco, alcohol, and illicit drugs on the University campus, or during any school-sponsored activity or event is strictly prohibited.

All students and University employees are provided annually with a copy of the ADU Drug Policy in which both University and legal sanctions for inappropriate drug use are detailed and the known health risks associated with inappropriate drug use are described.
