Review of Corban University

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

College is hard work. Lots of reading, and studying and more reading. But Corban's professors are amazing because, with the small class size, they actually get to know you, your name, and pray for you. They are concerned with their students doing well not only academically, but in life as well. Every Professor has an open door policy, meaning if they are in their office, come on in! I have found my professors to be easily accessible through email, meetings before and after class and personal meetings. Having your Professor care and make themselves available makes all the difference when it comes to academic success.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I chose Corban because the people and atmosphere were so friendly and because these people actually want to live out their faith! The smallness of the campus only increases how many people you know and faces you recognize which means there always is someone to say hi to. My favorite part of Corban is dorm life. Living in community with other fun, spontaneous Christians who love me and keep me accountable is more than i ever though i could ask for from college life.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Yes, it's a little spendy. You're paying for what taxes cover at state schools and more, the more that makes a private Christian education worth the extra buck. Professors pray before class starts and our education is based on preparing us to make a difference in the world, which means a good thorough education backed by integrity and a Biblical base. There are plenty of scholarships available, most students get financial aid from the school.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Visit the campus if at all possible. It's a beautiful campus with wonderful people. You can only get a feel for the campus atmosphere and if it is right for you if you come and visit. Plus you can only get the $500 visit scholarship if you visit. The Corban Experience, one in the fall and one in the spring, are the best times to come.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Those wanting to grow and stretch themselves as students, people, and Christians.
