The vision of South Asian InterVarsity is to reach, disciple and mobilize the next generation of South Asian American World Changers.
We pursue this vision by empowering South Asian students to build communities on campus that hear and respond to God’s Word, develop as leaders and explore the intersection of their ethnicities & faith in Jesus.
SAIV communities gather weekly to connect, have fun, pray, study the Bible and live out what they hear from God. Click below to get connected with us!

Connecting with the larger South Asian InterVarsity community transformed my walk with Jesus and spoke powerful truths into areas of doubt in my faith. For the majority of my life, the idea of an "Indian Christian" felt like an oxymoron, and I believed that my ethnic identity was a barrier to my pursuit of God. SAIV helped me to discover the importance of my role as a South Asian woman in the family of God; joining this community was the first time I truly felt like I belonged without having to reject any part of who I am.”
