FAQs

Bryan College is unique because we are a school that unabashedly holds to the centrality of God’s Word in all that we do and say. For all of our ninety years, we have been animated by two core principles: a belief in the transformative power of the Gospel in an individual’s life and a commitment to equip students with the knowledge, values, and skills needed to make a difference in the world.

Bryan offers over thirty majors in more than fifty fields of study. In addition, we offer thirteen Master’s Degree programs as well as a Doctorate of Business Administration degree.

With over 1,400 residential and online students, we have an on-campus student-to-faculty ratio of around 12:1. Smaller class sizes allow for more individualized instruction and greater opportunities to form personal relationships with our faculty.

We believe that all students who meet the requirements for admission should receive the same quality of education and the same opportunities for spiritual and emotional growth. Students should set up an appointment with our ADA Coordinator (Hannah Schultz) in order to talk through the process of arranging any necessary accommodations. Contact: ada@bryan.edu or 423-775-7265.
