Crown College

Crown College began as a small Bible college in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in 1916 and is now located in Saint Bonifacius, about 40 minutes west of the Twin Cities. Rooted in the Christian and Missionary Alliance, it provides a faith-integrated education that places a biblical worldview across its programs and campus community.

Undergraduate students can choose from more than 25 accredited degree options in areas including nursing, business, sport management, biology, exercise science, psychology, teacher education, criminal justice, media arts, history, and ministry studies. Nursing includes hands-on clinical experiences, while other programs combine academic study with vocational preparation. Faculty bring the highest academic credentials or experience in business and other professional settings. Internship opportunities and summer outreach programs offer additional ways to apply learning.

The 212-acre campus is near Lake Minnetonka and includes residence halls, a dining center, classrooms, athletic facilities, student clubs, and 18 NCAA Division III teams. Crown also provides online undergraduate and graduate programs through eight-week courses. International students should expect a distinctly Christian setting, with faith integrated into classroom learning and community life. All on-campus students receive a scholarship, according to the college's published campus information.
