Educating Minds. Changing Lives. Since its spark of conception, SCU have been setting new standards of excellence in education.
Today we are a respected, worldwide leader in self-guided distance and campus learning. We have combined our resources to bring you the finest, most comprehensive instruction in the most flexible way possible. The Smith Christian University offers a broader array of study options. More career-focused instruction. Greater accessibility. Closer student support. More affordable tuition. Easier payment plans. Overall, you can look forward to a first-class educational experience that meets your highest expectations.
It has been a pleasure serving Smith Christian University, a prestigious and unprecedented institute of higher learning. The mission of this university will always be centered on preparing and training people by enhancing their inner ability and making them into great leaders for this century. As we prepare to make them great leaders, the students will endeavor to become world-changers by utilizing their academic, moral, social and economic values acquired through this institution.
Under the caring, competent and diligent leadership of qualified and committed board of directors and faculty, the University is continually growing and successfully striving to fulfill its vision.
The apostle Paul in commissioning Timothy (his son in the Lord) into the ministry, failed not to remind him of the importance of increased knowledge or continuous study so that he might be able to appropriately and effectively address the spiritual needs of an advancing age and callous generation. So in II Timothy 2:15, he tells him, "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth". Never is a statement more applicable to the needs of contemporary Christianity than this one is today.
I want to encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity to prepare yourself to become 21st century leaders who will take this generation into a new era of using advanced educational technology.
I urge you to apply your knowledge to your personal and professional life as you study. I must also encourage the community to join the University and become involved and equipped with academic knowledge to help us reach this generation. Together, we can strive to make a difference in the present educational system by "Reaching the World for Jesus." This can be accomplished by being qualified academically, morally and spiritually.
The Creator of the Universe is actively involved in every area of your life. He is guiding, leading, and your arrival at SCU has been on His mind.
He is very interested in your academic pursuits, which will yield enormous dividends in the years to come. Smith Christian University is an educational institution, a character-building enterprise, and a spiritual formation community, all integrated into a unique way of life.
