About Kuyper

Kuyper College is a ministry-focused Christian leadership college that educates and trains Christian leaders for ministry and service. Through the integration of a high-quality academic curriculum and a Reformed worldview, we provide students who desire a well-rounded biblical and academic college experience with the opportunity to see, understand, and live all of life through the lens of Scripture. This is instrumental in guiding our students through the process of discovering God's glory, communicating this truth to others, and honoring the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

TheKee--The Kuyper Education Experience

Founded as a Bible institute in 1939, and accredited by various regional and national agencies, Kuyper College offers bachelor and associate degrees in a wide variety of academic majors. These ministry and professional majors together form one of seven foundational elements that make Kuyper a very unique college. At Kuyper, we call the sum of these elements TheKee or The Kuyper Education Experience.

Other elements of TheKee include:

A continuous and intentional program of spiritual formation to help students become mature in their faith.

Formal internship and field-education programs with nationally recognized organizations, enabling students to apply to everyday situations the knowledge and skills they've acquired in the classroom.

International studies programs in which students have the opportunity to satisfy requirements in one of several locations throughout the world.

A diversity program that embraces and promotes an environment where people of diverse cultural, ethnic, and denominational backgrounds thrive.

A 1-to-15 faculy-student ratio that ensures individual attention for students from a committed and nationally known faculty.

A Kuyper's exceptional value, which ensures that tuition is signficantly lower than comparable Christian colleges-- an average of $6,000 less per year.

Grand Rapids is Our Home

Kuyper College is located on a beautiful wooded campus a few miles from downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan. Ranked as one of the top 50 metropolitan areas in the United States by the US Census Bureau, Grand Rapids offers all of the advantages of life in a big city--theater, symphony, professional sports, ballet, opera, and world-class entertainers and entertainment. Yet, it delivers all of those options with the friendly attitude and manners of a medium-sized Midwestern city. In addition, one can find nature's wonderland just a few miles from our campus. Hundreds of miles of sugary-fine sandy beaches, national forests, rivers teeming with game fish, and thousands of miles of hiking trails, plus snowmobiling, snow-boarding, and downhill and cross-country skiing. Big-city excitement, suburban convenience, the bounty of an outdoor paradise; Grand Rapids has it all.
