This study analyses characteristics of the model of a sustainable university present in the community university (a regionally-oriented non-public school of higher education), according to its managers. Its purpose is to identify institutional policies and establish perspectives. The concept of sustaining change and documental analysis is the basis for discussions. The results show expansion, diversification of knowledge areas and funding and stimulation of academic activities. The differences are the strengthening of the steering core and entrepreneurial culture. The challenge is to establish sustainable change and maintain the community character in spite of competition and resources.
