Types of Visits

We can plan a visit to match your needs! Choose a personal or group tour around campus, whichever fits you best. Visiting Grace in person is the best way to experience all our campus has to offer, but we know that’s not always possible, so we also offer virtual tours with a member of our Enrollment team. Schedule your visit today and discover what makes Grace a truly special place to pursue your education and faith journey.

In-Person Visit

Experience Grace in person with a guided campus tour and time with a member of our Enrollment team. During your visit, you will have the opportunity to learn more about Grace, discuss admissions and financial aid, and ask questions about your college journey.

In addition, students visiting on Tuesday or Thursday mornings may also have the opportunity to attend chapel while the semester is in session.

Student athletes interested in competing on a Grace athletic team can indicate that while scheduling. When possible, the visit may also include time with a coach or athletics staff member.

Student Stories

I am continually blown away by how intentional the professors and students are at Grace Christian University. Because of this, I could not be more pleased with my decision to pursue a Communications degree. Through my experience at Grace, God has taught me that people matter. Because of that, I have learned that how we choose to communicate has the power to change lives.

The Business program at Grace is ministry-focused. It’s about learning how to use what you study to serve in any way God calls you. I really liked the community aspect and how Grace is so focused on ministry in every part of your life — no matter what you end up doing. The community has really shaped me — especially this year. Together we are challenging each other – helping us grow into people who follow God in every part of our lives.

The Human Services program here at Grace Christian University equips students to serve God and others in their community. The professors really care for you as a person. They don’t just care about grading your assignments — they want to see you grow. We do a lot of hands-on experience, getting outside and working through real scenarios. During my first year, God placed on my heart a passion to serve others.

What drew me here the most was the closeness and togetherness that Grace had — it’s different from a bigger school. Grace really sets you up for success with the teachers, counselors, and advisors they provide. My time at Grace has shaped me by helping me become more responsible, grow in my studies, and find what I truly want to do.

The Biblical Studies program is transformational. If you’re looking for a place that teaches the Bible, with professors who care about you and small class sizes where you can have one-on-one discussions —this is the place to be. The professors are kind and truthful about the Gospel. It’s a great place to learn the Word of the Lord. The professors here have changed my way of thinking. Conversations with people like Kyle Vegh and Jake Rodgers have helped me learn and talk through hard topics.

The Elementary Education [Dual Degree] program through Grace Christian University is eye-opening. It gives you opportunities to learn in your own classroom and also go out into the field to teach in many different schools and age groups. I really know exactly what I want to do when I graduate, and I know what the field is going to look like because of this [Dual Degree] partnership.

The Biblical Studies program at Grace Christian University is Christ-centered. All the professors here are amazing — each with their own personality, but the same passion for God. They love to teach, they love their students, and they’ve poured so much biblical knowledge into me. I want to make sure that what I’m teaching from God’s Word is correct. Taking advanced biblical classes here helps me understand truth and prepare for ministry.

The Criminal Justice program at Grace is full of tons of opportunities and it’s super exciting. You get to go on different trips, experience what it’s really like, and meet officers in the field. Earning a college degree helps me move up in my field, not just get a job. It gives me the knowledge and confidence to handle any situation.

The Psychology program at Grace Christian is eye-opening. All t he professors are great — very encouraging. It’s one-on-one, with wonderful internship opportunities and amazing guest speakers. Going into a mental health field can be heavy, so I wanted faith incorporated into my career. That’s what drew me to Grace.
