We believe that there is no substitute, nor equivalence to Christian Education, the type Christ left us. In the classroom setting, the student learns in a consistent matter. The student teacher interaction is face to face. But the University understands that in today's society, there are thousands of adults, who are not available to attend college in a classroom setting, because of their work schedule, finances or geographical situation. There is no heavier burden than unfulfilled potential. ou will find the latest information about us on this page.  

 

The mission of the University is to provide an alternative, educational forum for persons who work or live far away from a university. We offer a very special program of studies. This mission is fulfilled by providing an individualized and effective program for the student that meets his/hers particular need and goals. A course curriculum will be developed with consideration to the needs of the student. This curriculum will include the appropriate levels needed to fulfill the requirements for graduation. The courses, texts, and assignments will reflect the student's interests. After the course requirements are completed, the student will feel proud to be a part of such marvelous enterprise, receiving a Diploma for the hard work done as a student of the University.

 

The mission of the University is to meet the needs of many seeking a degree, but for reasons of high cost, non transferable credits, discrimination, or prejudice cannot attend a university. Here is the key of the success of the University: we keep cost at a minimum so that students may be able to see their study dreams become a reality. They will be better prepared to professionally to fulfill the mission to "go and preach" in their own particular calling for service.

Method of Study:

 

ACU's curriculum is an educational format specifically prepared for long distance learning. That is the student can do his/her studies via mail, the internet. In some cases we make tutoring arrangements so the student can travel to our University. This is based on the financial need of the student.

 

This structure of studies and courses is dependent on the pace and time the student gives in order to complete it. All the degree programs are designed to fulfill the traditional educational requirements and are Theology from the Holy Scriptures and not man's doctrines.
