“Asbury provides a Christ centered environment for learning, which makes Asbury a special place. Asbury has a wide variety of classes to choose from to help narrow down your interest in psychology. It is great to be in a place where the professors truly care.”

Psychology

Words from our Students

“Asbury University is an incredibly unique college experience, and what creates this uniqueness is the intersection of faith and the liberal arts, two aspects of life that have been studied together for centuries. In our current day, however, Asbury remains one of a few institutions that still educates at this intersection.”

— Annie

“While at Asbury, I have enjoyed living on Moose (Trustees 2nd Main). Throughout my four years on the hall, I have bonded with my floor-mates through competing in the Trustees Olympics, having meaningful conversations late into the night, and being apart of the proud traditions of Moose.”

Words from our Students

“At first, I did not want to come to Asbury because I was afraid of being so far away from home (New York). However, I blindly trusted in God’s plan, and I’m so glad I did. Asbury is a place where I have been able to grow further and deeper into the person God has intended for me to be. I have found God in this place, as well as a supportive and kind community.”

— Skyela

Words from our Students

“The best part of being an Asbury student has been the support and guidance I’ve received from Asbury’s compassionate faculty and students. I’ve been able to pursue a degree while working full-time, traveling the world, and receiving guidance during difficult times in my life. Asbury goes above and beyond anything I’ve experienced at other universities.”

“At Asbury, I am not allowed to settle for “good enough,” whether in academics, faith, friendships, or work.

Asbury is a place where you grow in relationship to God.”
