Jul 10, 2023 | Blog

Curious about the benefits of attending Grace Christian University? From amazing student ministry opportunities to affordable tuition, Grace offers a college experience that will equip you to be a courageous ambassador for Christ. 

Here’s just a few of the benefits of attending Grace Christian University:

 

Benefits of Attending Grace

  1. Small class sizes
  2. Affordable tuition
  3. Real-world service opportunities
  4. Student leadership opportunities

 

1. Small Class Sizes

Grace Christian University maintains small class sizes and a strong student-to-professor ratio. Why? Small class sizes in college allow for personalized attention from professors to students, so that every student can perform to the best of their ability. 

Small class sizes also enable quality in-class discussion among classmates. This leads to a more thorough understanding of class material, and more engagement from students.

Additionally, small class sizes help you build closer relationships with fellow students. No student wants to be lost in a sea of people throughout college. In fact, most students want to build lifelong friendships and relationships during their college years. One of the benefits of attending Grace is that you will get to form this kind of solid friendship with your fellow classmates. 

 

2. Affordable Tuition

One of the top reasons that people put off going to college or decide to forgo college entirely is financial concerns. College is expensive! And most young adults simply don’t have the financial resources to cover it without taking on massive loans. 

At Grace, we believe every student deserves a high-quality education, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we strive to keep our tuition costs affordable, and offer financial aid and scholarship opportunities to help ease the cost for our students.

Don’t let financial concerns stop you from getting the education you deserve. Check out our tuition costs for the 2023-24 school year here.

 

3. Real-World Service Opportunities

The benefits of attending Grace aren’t limited to the classroom. Students at Grace have many outlets for hands-on service in the real world, too. 

Have you ever wanted to experience cross-cultural ministry? Join one of our short-term mission trips and learn how to share the gospel while lending a hand to those in need.

Locally, students at Grace practice real-world service opportunities through volunteering at local churches, non-profits, and even on-campus organizations. To learn more about service opportunities at Grace, take a look at our student ministries page. 

 

4. Student Leadership Opportunities

Are you a natural-born leader, or would you like to grow in your leadership skills? Grace Christian University provides numerous leadership opportunities for students. 

If you love problem-solving and working on a team, consider becoming a member of the student government! Or, if you’re looking for a more casual leadership role, volunteer as a member of a student government sub-committee. You’ll get to help with activities all across campus, and make friends as you go. 

For the musically inclined, you can become a worship leader or join the band. If you’re an athlete, work your way towards becoming a team captain on one of our intramural sports teams

These are just a few of the student leadership opportunities at Grace, so if you’re curious to see how else you can get involved, visit our leadership opportunities page.
