Central Christian College of Kansas is a distinctively Christian liberal arts college committed to academic excellence, integration of faith and learning, talent development, formation of a growing faith in Jesus Christ and preparation for a life of servant leadership. Known to be a caring community, Central faculty and staff desire to serve and disciple students looking for a Christian college. There are unique academic programs at Central Christian which include Aviation, Criminal Justice and Contemporary Christian Music.
The word “relationship” describes the way Central Christian College impacts students. First, students develop relationships with the teaching faculty. Words like caring, well prepared, friendly, helpful and investing in students are used by students to describe the professors. Secondly, students develop relationships with fellow students. The word community is used to describe those types of relationships and that these relationships will carry on for a lifetime. A third part of relationships is their relationship with Christ, the opportunity to grow in their faith in a community of other believers. At Central Christian, we take the Christian worldview seriously, not just in name, but also in practice.

“Transitioning from Barton County Community College to Central Christian College was a big change, but in a good way. It was awesome to be in a good environment and a Christian atmosphere and be able to feel safe and secure.”
“Transferring credit hours actually was not all that hard. They took my previously taken classes without really any problems. The faculty at Central is amazing. It was great to be able to get to know them and look up to them as mentors instead of just feeling like a number in a classroom. They made class interesting and were usually more than willing to discuss any questions I had.”
