Crown College Description:

Crown College was founded in 1916 with an enrollment of four, all interested in studying the Bible. Today the college maintains its bible-centered mission, but is an accredited college with over 1,000 students. Crown is located on a 215-acre campus in Saint Bonifacius, Minnesota, a town located about 30 minutes west of Minneapolis. Undergraduates at Crown can choose from 35 majors; professional fields in education, nursing, and business are a few of the most popular. High achieving students should look into Crown's Honors Program with its academic and financial perks. Crown has many on-campus activities to offer; students can play disc golf, act in the drama club, or lead Bible discussion groups. Students can also study abroad--either for a full semester, or on shorter, mission-based trips. On the athletic front, the Crown College Storm competes in the NCAA Division III Upper Midwest Athletic Conference.
