Student Life
To experience Evangel’s family atmosphere is to go beyond simply attending the classes and Chapels that are required of students. Life at Evangel means more than that. It’s made up of students, faculty and staff who are passionate about living with purpose, going all out and having a lot of fun along the way.
Campus is a thriving community where young Christians from all over the world take part in more than 50 clubs and organizations, 12 intercollegiate athletic teams and numerous student-led efforts each and every day. From the classroom to the cafeteria, the residence halls to the rec center, students from all backgrounds plug in and become a valued part of Evangel’s culture.
Traditions
From freshmen enjoying their first days on campus to alumni who attended Evangel decades ago, EU’s traditions have become an unforgettable aspect of campus life. Within your first hours at Evangel, you’ll get to experience our extraordinary heritage and, more importantly, make it a part of your own story. Evangel has a rich history of traditions, many of which have been around for decades, while others begin and grow larger each year.
Missing all you Evangel folks! Hopefully you are all enjoying your spring break!

Around Campus
Life on Evangel’s campus brings together some of the best parts of the college experience: Living, Eating, Hanging Out, Learning and Worshiping. Cantrell Student Union features the recently renovated Crusader Dining Hall and Joust, which offer dining options for sit down meals or on-the-go snacks. Cantrell also features a large balcony overlooking campus for outdoor dining on those beautiful fall and spring days. One of the best ways to get a feel for what goes on around campus is to pay Evangel a visit.
