Calvin University

Find your calling at Calvin

Maybe you know exactly what you want to study—or maybe you have no idea. Either way, you need more than a diploma to build a life that has meaning. Don’t spend four years accumulating debt for a piece of paper and a directionless life. 

Calvin University is different. Yes, you’ll be prepared for your dream job when you graduate, but you’ll also be ready for something even bigger. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how you can change the world for Christ. Founded in 1876, the University’s park-like campus sits on 400 acres in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Our graduate placement rate is 99%, and 100% of our students participate in service learning opportunities. 

At Calvin, you’ll join Christians from all over the world who are curious and motivated. They’ll challenge you to:
• Apply your learning. Learning at Calvin is active. Our students explore relevant issues with hands-on projects and classes that foster deep conversations. With our Christian professors, you’ll think deeply about each subject then put it into practice. 
• Act on your faith. When we see injustice, we roll up our sleeves and speak up. If you’re passionate about setting things right, you’ll fit right in here.
• Ask hard questions. Don’t shy away from what’s happening in the world. Calvin has the kind of people who listen well and speak intentionally. Explore different points of view and learn how to respond to God’s direction
