Haley

Wonderful school! It has a small, community feel to it. There is always something going on, including intramurals, dances, get-togethers, Bible studies, and more. It is a very diverse school, with students from all over the world. The professors really care about the students, and are usually pretty flexible. I love the Christ-centered perspective of the school, it helps me grow in my relationship with Christ. Sports is a big thing at MNU, about one third of the students are athletes. All in all, it is an amazing school in my opinion.

Meghan

I have been at MidAmerica Nazarene University for two semesters and so far I love it here. The professors here genuinely care about the students and take the time to learn each person’s name. The community at MidAmerica is very much like a family and the environment is welcoming. The classes are both challenging and intriguing. The athletic facilities admittedly need some work, but improvements are set to be made in the next 5-10 years. MidAmerica has plans to build a new student development center, a new athletic complex, and a stadium. Overall my experience at MNU has been great and I look forward to continuing my education here for the next few years. I have built many great relationships and hope to gain even more.

Claudia

I love MNU! I feel safe, accepted, cared for, and like I fit overall. There are people from so many walks of life and cultures there. The professors care about you and want students to succeed. There are opportunities for sports, dances, clubs, and more. I would not want to go anywhere else.

  6. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    There is not a specific type of person that shouldn't go here but if I had, it would be someone that is not open minded to Christian morals and values. Or motto is TO LEARN becauseLiberal arts in the context of Christian holiness calls for commitment to a life of learning. TO SERVE which is the pursuit of excellence is to be blended with Christlike compassion. TO BE whole meaning loving God with heart, soul, mind and strength. The journey toward wholeness makes every desk an altar, and every classroom a cathedral where faith and learning are blended together.

  9. What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

    I brag that we are a servant school because there are so many opportunities not only to serve in other countries but in our own back yard, in our community. We also have times for chapel three days a week with a church that is also on the campus for us to use as well. There really is not better way then to wake up in the morning and go and praise God before your classes start. Last is that every professor will pray and/or do a devotion with the class so you can really tell that they care.
