  • As a Christ-centered learning community a statement of faith is required for traditional undergraduate admissions. Our continuing studies, graduate studies, and credentialing programs do not require this statement.
  • Simpson University places a strong emphasis on academics and academic achievement. Priority financial aid awarding and class assignments are advantages given to students with a higher GPA.
