Lubbock Christian University

LCU is a welcoming community of scholars and discoverers diligently seeking to honor God in everything we do. The vision of the faculty and staff is the passionate pursuit of student success through intellectual growth, spiritual formation, personal stewardship, and leadership development. Students are our passion. Changing lives is our mission.

LCU recognizes that students often face significant challenges that have the potential to derail them and prevent them from fulfilling their dreams of completing a college education.

With more than 65 undergraduate majors, a Scholars Colloquium, and an Honors College, LCU has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a Top 20 Comprehensive College in the Western Region.

At LCU, everything is based on faith. From the first week that freshmen step on campus, they are learning not only academically, but also spiritually. Whether you choose the tradition of Praise Choiror step up and lead in BLUR, at LCU your character will form the foundation for your success.

Like so many who have come before you, you'll begin your LCU success story from day one and forever be connected with our impressive network of more than 9,000 alumni. LCU graduates are in high demand. In fact, we have a 96% placement rate for graduates of our education program, and our pre-med students gain acceptance to medical school in a typical year at 85% which far exceeds the national average.

From the team-building hilarity of Master Follies to the outrageous stress relief of TWIRP Week, at LCU you won't have time to be bored. You can choose from more than 25 student organizations and more than 15 intramural sports. Keep fit at the Rhodes-Perrin Rec Center, our newly-renovated 70,000-square-foot facility. Cheer on the Chaps (including our 2009 national champion baseball team) or Lady Chaps (including our 2016 NCAA Division II National Championship Basketball Team) Travel the world through study abroad programs. Or take part in a student-led Spring Break campaign reaching points across the country and around the world.

LCU is one of the "greenest" campuses in the country, and as a student here, you can help ensure it stays that way. We're innovators in energy conservation, recycling, sustainability, and waste reduction, and we voluntarily seek LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building Council for new campus construction projects.

When you come to LCU, you will be within 20 miles of 1,800 retail stores, 337 restaurants, 65 public parks, 34 movie theater screens, nine golf courses, and nine libraries, as well as the Preston Smith Lubbock International Airport.

From the moment you step foot on our campus, you will know that LCU is a special place committed to our Christian faith and fostering spiritual growth in every person. Learn and be blessed by our faculty and staff who believe working here is not just a job, but a mission of service to God and to you - the student. It is rare to find a university with so many opportunities to reach out to God with your heart and life.

One of our core values at LCU is people. This means plain and simple: people matter. No matter your background or experiences, you will be welcomed at LCU. Each student can expect to be treated with respect, dignity, and care. In fact, our student body is very diverse, and we strive to celebrate the unique individuals that make up our community through events such as Black History Month, International Luncheon, and Taste of Culture. All of these events are ways to share the unique backgrounds of our students, faculty, and staff.

Our expert professors shape your mind and guide your personal development. You'll discover how making informed, heartfelt choices unlock more experiences and opportunities than you can imagine.

Lubbock Christian University may be a small school, but here you'll live large. You'll feel the strong sense of community and the welcoming atmosphere the first time you set foot on campus.

College life is said to be the best time of your life, but for many it can also be a time of confusion and uncertainty. However, in every circumstance comes the opportunity for growth. The mentor program was created to provide a connection between you and a mentor who has experienced the stress of college life. Take it from them, every circumstance leads to growth, but not without the support and encouragement from people who have been there.

The Office of Disability Services at Lubbock Christian University is committed to assisting students with various types of disabilities in acquiring appropriate academic accommodations. Our desire is to help you reach your full potential - regardless of any physical, learning, psychological, psychiatric or other disability you may have.

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 mandates equal opportunities for persons with disabilities in all public facilities, programs, activities, services, and benefits derived from them. Both ADA and Section 504 are civil rights statutes that prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability, and obligate colleges and universities to make certain reasonable adjustments and accommodations, and offer to persons with disabilities the opportunity to participate fully in all institutional programs and activities.
