At Southwestern, students are required to complete 30+ semester hours of Bible or ministry classes. In addition, students are required to profess a faith in Jesus Christ, be involved in ongoing ministry experiences and attend semi-weekly chapel services. All trustees, administrators, faculty and staff also are required to profess faith in Jesus Christ.
As an affiliate institution of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU), Southwestern College supports its mission to advance the cause of Christ-centered higher education and to help it’s institutions transform lives by faithfully relating scholarship and service to biblical truth.
