The Crown College experience is more than just a degree—it equips students to do what they do best, whether as a nurse, a video technician, a teacher, a pastor, or a business leader. It means taking the skills, talents, and passions that God has given to our students and showing them how to impact the world.

Investing in a private Christian college education from Crown means you understand the value of integrating your faith into your future and understand the importance of preparing yourself to serve and influence the world.
Serve Trips (DS trips) are a highlight of the year for Crown students. Crown’s international networks deliver opportunities for our students to “go” and learn, experientially, on these short-term missions opportunities. More than 50% of our graduates will participate in at least one DS trip during their Crown time.
Crown offers a new opportunity to work in a creative access country with C &MA international workers who are involved with relationship building through an English Language Center. Prayer and helping with events at the center will be the main focus.
Students are invited to go to Jaraboccoa, Dominican Republic, to serve with Student’s International. The SI site involves students in occupational based sites that allow them to work alongside missionary staff working toward long term community development. The short term teams come to encounter God, share the Good news, disciple, and serve.

From the beginning of 1916, Crown College has been aligned with the Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination. While students are attending Crown come from many different church denominations, Crown is one of four Christian and Missionary Alliance colleges in the United States. Today, more than five million Christians, from 81 different countries, call themselves “Alliance.”
The Alliance is a light-bearing, Jesus-centered mission and church-planting movement with deeper life at its heart. Instead of being a denomination intent on building its kingdom, the Alliance is a people who take action out of love for Jesus Christ that compels them to fulfill His last command on earth: The Great Commission.
