Heritage University's mission is to provide quality, accessible higher education to multicultural populations which have been educationally isolated. Within its liberal arts curriculum, Heritage offers strong professional and career-oriented programs designed to enrich the quality of life for students and their communities. Located on the Yakama Nation Reservation, Heritage's student body reflects the Indian, Mexican immigrant, Caucasian, and Filipino farming communities in the region. Small classes, tutoring support, internships, and community service characterize education programs. A climate of cultural pluralism fosters respect and appreciation for each student.
