A healthier future.

Awareness and prevention of health issues is first priority, especially in the classroom. From fitness to nutrition to psychology, we want you to be prepared to teach others what it means to live out a healthy lifestyle. If we are God’s hands and feet, we better take care of ourselves so we can move and spread the Gospel. Work side-by-side with professionals to construct a career lifestyle dedicated to interpersonal skills, the pursuit of knowledge and professional disposition.

I have the opportunity to not just be in a caring community, but a community that fosters the same values and faith. There are so many different perspectives here from students and professors, and it creates so many opportunities to grow.

Being at Crown makes you want to stay at Crown for the rest of your life; but being at Crown also gets you excited for what God is preparing you to do after college, too.

Mentoring Opportunities

Learning in the classroom is one of the core ways that you can grow as a person. However, we believe classrooms can only go so far. That is why each student has the opportunity to connect with a faculty or staff member to talk about class, life, and Jesus. Because learning is more than just knowledge, it is experiencing life-changing relationships.
