We annually invite the Classes back to Bryan College to reminisce, remember, and celebrate what God has done in your life. Also, learn how God continues to work in the lives of our current students and at Bryan College.

The weekend includes good food and great fellowship with friends of a lifetime. During commencement on Saturday, each Golden Grad will receive an honorary golden diploma as we honor you. Even if you did not earn your full degree, we want you to celebrate with us!

Giving Back at Bryan

Your gift can change the world exponentially, whether through monetary gifts or gifts of service. The Advancement team is here to help you understand your Time, Talents, and Treasure and how those can make a difference on campus and in the greater community.

Working at Bryan College has been an incredible blessing. The Marketing Department feels like family, and the support I received while pursuing my Masters Degree through BC Online was outstanding. Bryan College provides a nurturing environment for personal and professional growth.
