Is Providence a Good Fit for Your Student?

Is your student looking for…

  • a Christian university offering a wide variety of majors such as Aviation, Health Sciences, Business and Psychology?
  • a university experience with smaller classroom sizes and professors who know you by name?
  • a safe, rural environment on a 100-acres campus where students can focus on their studies and actively participate in recreational clubs and activities?
  • a place to make new connections, establishing a network of life-long friends and professors as mentors?
  • an opportunity to explore how faith and learning apply in real-world places of work?
  • an education that helps students connect “calling” to career and become difference-makers in their field of choice?

If your student answered “yes” to at least half of the questions, we would love to get in touch with you and your student and walk with you through the application and admission process.
