Find Your Purpose in a Christian Community

At Grace, education is about transformation.  You’ll be known by name. You’ll be challenged to think biblical, and surrounded by people who believe in your potential and pray for your growth.

When you wrestle with a question or face a tough season, someone will walk with you. When you succeed, the whole community celebrates with you. That’s what it means to belong here.

Whether you study on campus or online, you’re part of a community rooted in Scripture and driven by a shared mission to make an eternal impact for Christ.

WHY CHOOSE GRACE

What Makes Grace Stand Out?

Small Classes
You won’t fade into the background. Professors teach, mentor, and pray with you. Every conversation matters.

Flexible Pathways for Your Life
Life can be busy. Grace offers online and graduate options designed to fit your calling and commitments, without losing the personal connection. 

A Great Place for Homeschoolers
If you come from a homeschool background, you’ll feel right at home. The same personal attention and faith-focused environment continue here, with mentors who understand how you learn and what drives you.

Prepared for Life and Ministry
Grace equips you for what’s next.Through internships, mentorships, and hands-on learning, you’ll graduate ready to make an eternal impact.

Accessible and Affordable
We’re committed to making a Grace education possible. Our scholarships, grants, and financial aid reflect a belief that cost should never keep a student from their calling.

I am continually blown away by how intentional the professors and students are at Grace. I could not be more pleased with the decision I made to pursue a Communications degree. God has taught me through Grace, that people matter, and 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 — by challenging each other and 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 Van and Jake Rogers 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. The 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.

I believe that God has used everyone to inspire me to keep going and reach my goal. Something they all had in common was that they always made me feel their concern for my spiritual life. And this, as a leader, has inspired me to do the same in the church that God has called us to serve.
