Campus Life

No one can fully describe Evangel life — it's something you have to experience. Imagine living 24 hours a day in a community of young Christians from all over the country and around the globe. Life centers around campus — residence halls, the “Caf,” the fitness center, the student union, sports and countless spontaneous events. You won't want to miss a minute.

Life at Evangel gives you the opportunity to join, lead, create, collaborate — building an experience uniquely catered to your interests.

Tradition

Students engage in traditions that are staples of the Evangel experience. With each new freshman class, students adopt the unique campus culture and make it a part of their own story. Campus traditions enable students to express themselves through creative interests or just doing something to break up the regular routine.

Diversity

Evangel has a heritage of equality and integration. In December 1954, Evangel University made headlines when leaders announced that the university would welcome students of any race, denomination, or political affiliation upon opening in 1955. Today, Evangel continues the proud tradition as a leader of diversity in the Springfield community.

Experiencing a campus culture that promotes diversity prepares you to have global impact.
