Cornerstone University is a Christ-centered university with a great community that is created both my the faculty, staff, and students. Community is central to our faith as we grow in knowledge of the Lord. Our programs are evolving as we build our nursing program, online classes, and downsizing our humanities division (which is not supported by me and my friends). Our size as a school is small and its the way we like it here at cornerstone. Small numbers where everyone almost knows everyone and community is created with Christ as the center. Our core classes, as we are a liberal arts university, is evolving and I hope is improved for some of the required classes most of our students do not want to take; therefore, they do not get the most out of the teachings. Overall I love cornerstone even though some of the cafeteria meals can be 3 out of 5 rating.
Cornerstone University set the bar high in my opinion for colleges. My professors and cohorts have always been encouraging, helpful, and kind. This university is faith-based and the curriculum directly reflects these beliefs. What a breath of fresh air! Attending this college online is incredibly simple as they mail you any books or materials you may need. The adult program is one class at a time for approximately 5 weeks. It’s perfect for full time working students. I highly recommend Cornerstone University!!
While no university is perfect by everyone's standards, I can say this university strives to create a great, safe learning atmosphere that is sensitive to students' needs. All my professors have gone above and beyond what is expected of them to be responsive to me as a student, and as a person. Highly recommended school!
Cornerstone University is an incredibly safe campus with a deeply Christian core. Here, I am able to not only learn and pursue a degree, but grow my faith as well. The opportunities Cornerstone provides are vast, ranging from available professors, to internship opportunities, study abroad options, and a wide network of post college jobs. The campus is fun and clean, there's always students around who are willing to help answer any questions. Both students and faculty are friendly and kind, making campus a great place to live and continue to grow in a relationship with Christ. Though the food may not be the best, and we have our fair share of maintenance problems in the dorms, the nonexistent crime rate and ability to leave a laptop in a common area for hours on end without a worry makes well makes up for any problems. Overall, Cornerstone has some of the nicest people I have ever met, great chapel services and academics, and a truly Christ-centered education that delivers exactly what they promise in their motto, a life that matters.

I would tell myself not to push myself so hard my freshman year. College really is different than High school and it takes time to make the adjustment. You can't skate through classes and still expect A's.
What I would consider the worst thing about my school is how long our winter break is. I live with more than two hundred people in my dorm, and now I am back with just my family. It may sound silly but that is the only thing I do not like about my school. I loved my classes and my friends at Cornerstone. I cannot wait for my new classes to start and try my best. Most people can?t wait for break, but most of us are begging to go back home, to Cornerstone!
Cornerstone University is a lively university that offers a lot fantastic activities, has an amazing faculty, a president that truly cares about the students, and a great Christian community, along with great classes that get the student involved.
I would say the best thing about my school would be the religious foundation it really helps you build for the future. They make it easy to get used to and really make it feel they dont force Chapels or any event on you.
Someone who is focused on their schoolwork, and is looking for a positive Christian community to support them.
If I could speak to my high school self, I would tell myself to enjoy the process more. Life just kinda falls into place, so you plan the best you can, but you also can't worry when things don't work out how they were "supposed to." A change in priorities or direction is not a bad thing. In fact, it can sometimes be a door opening to something you never could have imagined. Had it not been for "interruptions" in my plan, I would not be as strong or insiteful as I am today.
The professors are extremely interested in their students's lives. I never feel like they're there just because it's a job. They are there for students to help them if they need it, and they really want to help them be the best people they can be.
They are very respectful and come from varying backgrounds and are willing to get to know everyone.
If the person isn't a Christian and doesn't desire to have a relationship with God. Also, if the person is someone that likes to party and drink a lot then Cornerstone isn't a school for them.
Cornerstone is know for its' Christian Contemorary Music degree and the faith-based circulum.
As a student attendig Cornerstone University the most frustrating thing is at the through out the day we learn so much about the field of study we are going into but we are aslo learning so much about God and Jesus Christ. When these two fields of interest get compiled into our brains all in one day it sometimes seems impossible to comprehend all the material at one time. Having such an astounding environment helps tremendously to balance the overload of such powerful and useful information.Ultimatley, it is up to the student to find the balance between the two.
The unique aspect about my school is that it's Christian college that is central around Jesus Christ. It also is a bigger version of the high school I attended: Eastbrook Academy.
