This school is very conservative religious and welcoming.

The unique thing about Bethel is the community. All the students are polite and want to live for Christ in a community that supports that. It?s very encouraging and uplifting that individuals actually care for one another. Bethel?s community is one of its best assets. It?s the main difference compared to other schools.

Bethel University places a high emphasis on spiritual growth, and I appreciated the dedication to its Christian faith. I wanted to attend a school where I was surrounded by people with similar morals to me.

The Christian atmosphere in my school is amazing and really helps me to practice how to live my life to honor and glorify God every day. It helps me to be a true disciple of Christ and to show the world who he really is.

Jesus as a basis of all beliefes and values

My school requires that everyone do some volunteering in the community. It definitely helps you get to know the community surrounding you and makes a positive impact on the community.
Katie
Bethel has a community that is sold out for living their lives for God. It encourages growth and living out the Word in all accpects of your life. Plus i knew no one else from my school who is going here.
Brittney
For people who genuinely want to be a part of it, Bethel truly is a community.
Taylor
Bethel university is unique to me because it is smaller than most schools. I enjoy this smaller atmosphere because it alows you to build stronger relationships. I also think that this is a great place to build stronger relationship with the lord.
Emily
Something that is unique about Bethel is we are a Christian Liberal Arts University, meaning you can basically major in whatever but it is unique in the sense that our faith is integrated in our education. With our general education requirements we become well rounded in various subject areas and our faith can apply in those areas as well. I liked this about Bethel, because as a Christian it is hard to find way to make your faith your way of life, and by learning more about Christianity as well as integrating it into my education i can do that .

Bethel is a private Christian university with a tie to the Baptist church, and it places huge emphasis on living in and building community. There are a lot of opportunities to get involved on campus, and it is very well-known for its education, business and nursing departments.
Anna
It's a christian school so you sometimes pray in class. You don't have to worry about being judged about being religious. There is also a covenant about not drinking during the school year.

it's familiar to my family, provides a good environment and is academically sound.
Alyssa
Bethel University is unique in that every student that wants to attend this University must sign a covenant. This covenant helps ensure that each student is held responsible for living a Christian lifestyle. Meaning, there is no tobacco use, alcohol or sex. I love this aspect of Bethel because we all ahve that in common; we want to live the best lives we can. The lives God made us to live.
Calvin
Bethel University has a strong emphasis on community and working together as a community. There is a wide range of support both fromal and informal that help students get the encouragement and support they need to succeed. The professors are truly amazing, one of which is in the top 12 textual critics in the world! Many other professors have written books and are widely known in their respective communities.
Brian
My school is very focused on developing students spiritual life and faith in a Christian God; it is close to home; family has often gone there in the past.
Josh
Very conservative but enjoyable and outgoing.
Malia
Bethel University is unique because it was the only private Christian school I considered. I ultimately decided to go to Bethel because it's division three, so I was able to participate in the Track and Field program without being on an athletic scholarship, so I had a little more freedom.
