When your faith matters, you want to surround yourself with people who also have the same beliefs and values – and that’s why it’s important that you find the best Christian College that suits your personal, religious and professional requirements.

If the time has come to choose a college for yourself, or your children, you want to make an informed decision. To help you do this, we at Union University have come up with our best tips for choosing the right college for your faith.

1. First thing you need to do is think about your future. Consider the options that will get you the career you want in life and write all your goals down on a piece of paper.

2. Do your research online. In the US, there are more than 4,000 colleges and universities – and if you’re after a particular type, then you need to get on Google and do your research. Check out a range of websites and take particular note of the courses they offer and compare it with your notes.

3. Consider your faith. While doing your online research, you might also want to take note of their dedication to Faith & Worship (they might have a web page you can access that gives you all that information). You might be wondering if you really need to attend a Christian college, or will you be able to still benefit from your faith elsewhere? This is really a personal choice, but if you do value your beliefs, it’s probably something you want to keep in all aspects of your life – education included.

4. Check out reviews from current or past students and also take the time to read their websites in detail to find out if you will be a good fit in that environment.

5. Take into account the budget and financial options available for attending the right college. Many offer financial aid which is of benefit to those who can’t afford to pay outright.

6. Give them a call. Have a chat with someone at the college, ask any questions you might have or voice any concerns you might be feeling. You want to be in an environment that is welcoming, a simple phone call will often be enough to tell you whether that is the case or not.


7. If you like what you see on the website and you have had a good conversation with them over the phone, go for the drive and take a walk on campus. Consider the following questions: Can you imagine yourself actually studying there, walking around the campus, and does it give you a positive vibe?

8. Finally, you probably want to talk to your parents, tell them everything you have learned and get their opinion as well.
