Why Bradford
Christian in calling, content and purpose
Bradford cannot offer the spectacular array of courses and activities of most colleges. It offers something rarer: serious study of the principles of knowledge, so that you can clearly articulate the Biblical guidelines by which to order every area of life.
Our courses are online, mentored and self-paced within each semester. They are demanding by design. You will read deeply, research independently and record your work with discipline, with a personal professor guiding you.
Tuition is paid through a simple monthly or per-semester plan, so you can complete your degree without student loans.
“It is our desire that from the students trained at Bradford Christian College there would arise men and women who would be accounted as the great thinkers of their generation, and that they would diligently train the rising generations to such a noble work.”
