Am learning a lot
Since the school has around 600 students, the class sizes are small. My largest class has about 35 people in it, and that is as a freshman; therefore, as I continue my education and take specific courses for my major the class sizes will be even smaller which will increase my one on one time with my professors and increase my ability to understand the content and fully understand it all better. This all will increase my chance of getting a job if I know my material and information about my career choice.
Am enjoying being here
Grayson, Ky is a very small town with limited recreational but even if we had bowling Allys and movie theaters, it still could be boring fi you make it boring. We make fun here, if you are a fun person then you will love it. If you just like being crazy with your friends without alcohol then this is where you belong. WE find things to do and ways t laugh until we get abs that people wouldn't imagine. Also if you play a sport KCU offers intramural sports as well as NCCA basketball, volleyball, soccer, and football.
Bang for the buck
Yes, we are in a recession and money isn't flowing like it used to. No, we can't grow money trees, but that doesn't mean we have to settle for less. KCU tuition is expensive since it is a private college but scholarships are everywhere. When you apply you are automatically in the running to receive scholarships.
Tips for prospective students
If you are considering Kentucky Christian University you are in fro a treat. It is not like most universities. he professors and faculty genuinely care for you and your success and walk with Christ. They aren't just here to teach you Algebra, but are here to see you grow in your relationship with Jesus and figure out what that means or looks like.
Great for these types of students
If you are a laid- back person who doesn't have to be busy doing something all the time KCU is the place. A beautiful place anytime, but when fall hits it looks like heaven on earth. It is not a place for someone who wants city life, because in little Grayson Ky, you won't find that.

This is a great school, it is small but not too small. The professors really care if you succeed or not. It is a christian school and has a relaxed atmosphere.
Tips for prospective students
Apply early and check for all opportunities to earn scholarships. There are many opportunities to earn money off of tuition. Talk to someone that is a current student, I think you will find that they love it.
Academic Rigor
Some classes are easier than others of course.
Dorm Life
The dorms are small to medium sized and I have had a really good dorm experience all 3 years.
Food and Dining
The room and board is great at this school. Instead of having a meal plan you simply have access to the cafeteria all day, as often as you want. Wifi is there also so you can work in the cafeteria and have access to snacks and drinks.
What to do for fun
There is always something going on and Huntington, VA and Ashland, KY are pretty close and have malls.
Bang for the buck
Tuition is right in line with the other schools in Kentucky but it is a much smaller, more personal experience.
Great for these types of students
Anyone going into ministry, teaching, nursing or music.
Campus Safety
I haven't had any issues, there is campus safety on site.

Not only are the general courses (math, history, English, etc.) at KCU excellent, the university also offers an outstanding array of biblical-based classes, giving the student training in required fields, but an educational experience that brings them closer to Christ. The courses are more challenging than you'll find at most schools, but the faculty and staff will do everything in their power to make sure you understand the material and assist you with your studies.

The faculty and staff here are about the most helpful, kind, patient people your going to find working on a college campus. And the students are generally nice to. You'd be hard-pressed to find a college campus as quiet and nice as KCU's. The classes are fun, but challenging, and there's help whenever you need it.
Bang for the buck
For Kentucky residents KCU may be a bit more expensive than a lot of colleges in the area, but it's worth every cent. You won't find another college campus with so many kind caring and compassionate people, or professors who do so much to make sure the students are getting along fine.
Tips for prospective students
First and foremost pray. But that's for anything. Second just be honest about who you are, where you've been, and what you're looking for. They'll help you get in, and to get in the program your interested in.
Great for these types of students
Hardworking students looking to build their faith while preparing for a career. Students who like the quietness of a small town, and the comfort of a Christian environment. If you love the outdoors the campus is located near Grayson Lake and Carter Caves State Park.
