CALIFORNIA BAPTIST UNIVERSITY

At CBU, we believe that each person has been created for a purpose, and our goal is to help students understand and engage this purpose through a Christ-centered education.

We are committed to providing resources that offer each student an educational experience that integrates academic, spiritual and social development opportunities designed to help them discover and fulfill their God-given calling.

At the heart of this challenge lies CBU’s “Core 4” – universal outcomes designed to help students become Academically Prepared, Biblically Rooted, Globally Minded, and Equipped to Serve. Our prayer is that our students will develop the skills, integrity and sense of purpose that glorifies God as they take their place in the global marketplace.

Our programs emphasize face-to-face interaction and participation between professors and students as they progress through rigorous curricula. CBU is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), and is a recognized 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization.

Our students represent an ethnically-diverse group of men and women from a variety of cultures and backgrounds from across the nation and beyond.

Students at CBU can currently choose from more than 150 undergraduate majors, minors and concentrations, as well as more than 40 graduate programs and four doctoral programs.
