Overview

This is the online undergraduate division of Abilene Christian University, a Churches of Christ-affiliated university based in Abilene, Texas. It functions as a separate degree-completion and distance-learning pathway rather than a physical campus experience, serving students who want ACU's degrees without relocating.

Academics

Programs are concentrated in fields with clear applied demand among working adults — business, health-care administration, and ministry among them — delivered in flexible online formats rather than a traditional residential curriculum.

Worth knowing

Applicants should understand this is a distance-learning division of ACU, not the residential undergraduate experience on the Abilene campus — the faith-based character carries over, but campus life, athletics, and the traditional college experience do not apply here.
