In the current era of the third millennium, the challenge of competition in the world of higher education in Indonesia is more strict. Commitment to improve the quality of infrastructure and superstructure a barometer of the academic community colleges to choose which ones to support the bright prospects for the future of prospective students.Some community members even meet the cost constraints to achieve high-quality education. Especially after the government cut subsidies to public universities through the privatization program, it resulted in increased costs, so hard to reach limited-income communities.

In this challenge, UNAS be kept consistent in maintaining the academic quality and capacity of infrastructure to improve public confidence. UNAS curriculum is now based on competencies that equip graduates with the skills, knowledge and attitude that is ready to be accounted for gait and his career in the community after graduation. UNAS also increase the capacity of online management information system so that the academic community and the global community can more easily and quickly interact with the UNAS through internet media. Yet the rapid development undertaken, UNAS remains committed to the nation. The commitment is embodied by setting tuition fees based on the philosophy: to give the broadest opportunity society, to achieve high-quality higher education.
