Asbury University

Academic Excellence & Spiritual Vitality

It’s no surprise that Asbury University consistently ranks in the top 25 among the Best Regional Universities in the South, and in the top 15 as a Best Value School according to U.S. News & World Report. 

Students love Asbury because of our:
• 12:1 student-faculty ratio, with more than 75% of faculty holding the highest degree in their field
• More than 95% graduate school acceptance rate for Math, Sciences, and Music for more than a decade
• 100% participation rate in cross-cultural/mission trip programs, plus multiple study abroad options
• 90^th-plus percentile in national Psychology and English program testing
• One-of-a-kind Equine program that includes a student-run Service Mount program and full-size Western Riding arena situated on nearly 350 acres of pristine horse country
• Exclusive, professional media and broadcasting internship and employment opportunities around the world while enrolled in school
• 16 intercollegiate sports and music ensembles with scholarships available 
• One of just two Christian schools in Kentucky with a nationally accredited Music Department

Asbury’s commitment to academic excellence is impressive, but spiritual vitality is equally as important in our holistic style education. Asbury alumni have been Nobel Prize finalists, writers for nationally released films and television shows, highest-ranking officers in the Salvation Army, and life-changing doctors, scientists, lawyers, CEOs, teachers, and missionaries. At Asbury, you’ll develop lifelong friendships within a safe, Christian environment, preparing you to engage in culture and advance the Gospel through your career and calling. You’ll build a solid résumé while strengthening your relationship with God and using your unique gifts to serve others.
