About Cornerstone Christian University
Cornerstone Christian University was founded in 1999 and is a pioneer in online education with affordability as its purpose. Education should be flexible and affordable! Cornerstone Christian University students span the globe. They are successful entrepreneurs, educators, counselors, business leaders, pastors, etc. Education at CCU is based on the Judaeo-Christian traditional approach in contrast to the humanistic, shifting systems of secular education. We believe the traditional Christian approach provides the student with the best possible degree programs and methods of study. Our moral and ethical teachings are rooted in Scripture as our sole authority for quality. There is no government interference or third party needed to provide the best quality of service. Our morals and ethics dictate that!
CCU provides one flexible way to study: online, which provides almost everyone an opportunity to study and earn their degree without pressure. CCU students can access their class anytime they wish to work on their assignments, and professors’ feedback is a breeze. Studies at CCU are geared toward busy adult life that needs a student-friendly, accelerated program to accommodate their busy lifestyle. Classes are offered in a once-a-week format.
