School Notes:
- Crown College offers many opportunities for growth both within the academic setting and beyond the classroom. These experiences contribute to community life, personal development and enjoyment, career preparation, leadership training, and spiritual development.
- Uncompromising in its commitment to high quality education, every baccalaureate degree includes a general studies core and a Christian studies core in addition to the chosen major. Practical hands-on experience is built into many of Crown's degrees. Business, ministry, and Intercultural Studies majors can take a six-month internship during their junior or senior year. Many of these internships are cross-culturally based. You can also participate in one of our study-abroad programs.
- Crown College is situated on a 215-acre campus near the communities of Waconia and St. Bonifacius, Minnesota. Nestled among the rolling hills of one of the most beautiful lake-dotted regions of Minnesota, the College is just minutes west of the bustling Twin Cites of Minneapolis and St. Paul, offering a place of retreat for learning and growth.
- Crown College is accredited by the North Central Association (NCA) of the Higher Learning Commission.
