Online Application

Are you ready? You are going to submit an application to college-this is a big deal! We want you to be prepared, so here are a few of our recommendations.

The online app needs to be completed all at one time. It is probably best if you review the entire application or paper application before you fill this out, and maybe even type out the answers to the essay questions beforehand. That way, when you start the application, you already have your best answers taken care of.

If you are an international student, we have a special website with instructions for you!

If you have some questions, let us know. Matt Gabrielse, Admissions Counselor, will be happy to help you!

The Providence Perspective
At Providence Christian College we gladly confess and seek to practice the Biblical teaching that all of life must be lived under the rule of Christ. Therefore, the instruction, attitudes and lifestyles of everyone at Providence must clearly express this truth. In our lifestyle, the college community is to obey God’s Word. We are to demonstrate a repentant, redeemed heart and life. All of us are to respect one another as Christians, and to faithfully care for God’s creation.

Secondly, at Providence, we understand the Bible as the infallible, inerrant Word of God. We must each seek to know in our hearts and minds that God created all things, how Christ redeemed us out of the fallen human race by His grace, and what this means as we live a life of gratitude in our world.

Since Providence Christian College unashamedly is a Christian college, all of life, inside and outside of the classroom, is to be lived for the glory of God, in obedience to His Word, the Bible, and in gratitude for our salvation in Jesus Christ. Students must make it their goal to understand the Bible’s teachings concerning holiness, love of God and others, godliness, and to increasingly live in accord with these teachings. They, along with the rest of the college community, must demonstrate personal moral integrity in all the areas of their lives and work as part of that community. Being a part of the community at Providence Christian College means that we all are accountable first to the Lord, and then also to one another as brothers and sisters in Christ.

By signing below, I certify that I have read this foundational statement of Providence Christian College and subscribe wholeheartedly to the vision and purpose statements of the college. I hereby agree to conduct myself in accordance with these standards. I further, to the best of my knowledge, declare that all the statements in this application are accurate and complete.

Furthermore, I hereby give my consent to be photographed, videotaped, and/or recorded by a representative of Providence Christian College and/or its agents or vendors working on behalf of the College. I agree that my image and/or voice may be used in print, broadcast, and other materials created by them for the purposes of promoting Providence; communicating with students, alumni, donors, prospective donors, or other current or potential supporters; use in the college yearbook; and/or any other purpose related to the furthering of Providence’s mission as an educational institution. I also waive the right to receive compensation for the use of my image and/or voice under the above stated conditions.
