Campus


The university's main campus is located in one of Cincinnati's western neighborhoods just a few miles west of downtown, but classes are also offered at extension sites in Sharonville, Ohio, and in Indianapolis. In 2009, CCU began offering classes in Jeffersonville, Indiana, and in the Greater Louisville area. Also, beginning in 2018, CCU partnered with Point University, which added approximately 30 degree programs to be offered to students online.



Academics


The university is structured into five schools:



  • Biblical Studies, Arts, and Sciences[2]

  • Ministry[3]

  • Education[4] and Behavioral Sciences[5]

  • Business[6]

  • Adult Learning[7]


Cincinnati Christian University offers Bachelor's degrees and Master's degrees. The university is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association.[8] Cincinnati Bible Seminary is also accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.[8] CCU is a member of the Greater Cincinnati Consortium of Colleges and Universities, an organization including all of the accredited colleges and universities in the area. This consortium relationship gives students access to course offerings of the other institutions through a cross-registration arrangement as well as access to library resources of the other schools in the consortium.


CCU is a member of the Association of Schools of Jerusalem University College (formerly known as the Institute of Holy Land Studies) and is approved to offer the Master of Arts in Counseling program by the Ohio Counseling and Social Worker Board. The Master of Arts in Counseling degree is pre-approved as a qualifying degree for licensure as a professional counselor by the State of Ohio Counselor, Social Worker, and Marriage & Family Therapist Board. The Department of Behavioral Sciences has been approved under The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP).[9]
