“I began my college journey in 1978. I kept trying to finish over the years, but life kept happening. Until I began Summit Christian University, no one ever cared if I graduated or not. The staff and faculty, and even my classmates, have been more than supportive and encouraging. I am so proud to have been a part of this wonderful college. God has blessed our area with Summit Christian University! So, if not now, when?”

– LISA WEST, 2020 Graduate

About Summit


There are two wonderful and nationally recognized colleges in Western Kentucky, but neither has nor offers a Christian education. 
Summit Christian University continues a rich history of Christian education that dates back to the late 1950s. We are a trans-denominational Christian university that provides affordable education through face-to-face (and soon to be online) venues. 
The University is comprised of two academic colleges – the College of the Bible and the College of Arts and Sciences. The SUMMIT Program is uniquely designed for adult learners and offers degree programs from both of our colleges.
