Bold Christian University is not accredited. Our university operates as a private higher education institution under the law of the State of Texas, U.S.A. without requiring state accreditation. This legal authority is established through specific provisions in state higher education regulations that recognize certain exemptions for private institutions.
State Higher Education Framework
State higher education law provides specific exemptions for private universities under certain circumstances:
“The state higher education coordinating board does not regulate private postsecondary institutions which offer degrees only in religious disciplines.”
Our Mission and Purpose
Our degrees are primarily designed for use within faith-based organizations and religious ministry contexts. While BCU graduates are often very successful in their careers, our degrees should likely not be earned for the purpose of secular career advancement or visa/immigration purposes.
Credit Transfer
Students should not expect credits earned at our institution to transfer to other colleges or universities, as most institutions do not accept credits from non-accredited schools.
Career and Immigration
Our degrees may not be recognized for certain secular employment opportunities, professional licensing, or immigration/visa purposes.
We encourage prospective students to carefully consider their educational goals and research specific requirements for their intended ministry or career paths.
